From: Ahmed Ehab <bottaawesome633@xxxxxxxxx>
Preventing lockdep_set_subclass from creating a new instance of the
string literal. Hence, we will always have the same class->name among
parent and subclasses. This prevents kernel panics when looking up a
lock class while comparing class locks and class names.
