Add the missing lockdep annotation to avoid this warning:

The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe
you didn't initialize this object before use?
turning off the locking correctness validator.

This is pretty old code, as is the page_alloc_init_late() change. Do
we know why this warning has just turned up lately?
[dropped Helge's assumptions that it's related to parisc's unusual
__ARCH_SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED_VAL value. It turned out to be wrong.
Now I was able to trace down why I see those lockdep warnings on parisc.
The short answer is:
On parisc the _initdata section lies outside of the usual kernel
_stext ... _end range. Lockdep calls static_obj() which currently assumes
that __initdata is inside that range and thus returns "false".
That's why lockdep then reports
INFO: trying to register non-static key.
which is wrong.
Please drop those 3 lockdep patches from your mm-queue:
mm-add-lockdep-annotation-to-pgdat_init_all_done_comp-completer.patch
init-add-lockdep-annotation-to-kthreadd_done-completer.patch
watchdog-fix-lockdep-warning.patch
I'll send one single patch which fixes static_obj() instead.
Thanks,
Helge
