At the moment, it's rather premature to enable CONFIG_LOCKDEP_CROSSRELEASE and CONFIG_LOCKDEP_COMPLETIONS by default, because we face a lot of false positives for now since all locks and waiters are not classified properly yet. Until most of them get annotated properly, it'd be better to be optional.
