Ahh, of course. That explains why the rwsem trylock doesn't track lock
stats -- because by the time lock_contended() is called, up_write()
could have just called lockdep_release(), so that it appears as if the
lock has been released when in fact it has not but is about to.
I'll just remove the lock contention test from the trylocks.
Thanks,
