There can be multiple role switch devices running on a platform. Given
that lockdep is not capable of differentiating between locks of
different instances, false positive warnings for circular locking are
reported. To prevent this, register unique lockdep key for each of the
individual instances.

Why is this if statement needed at all?
Upon closer look it's redundant. Unfortunately, I missed the different
definitions for the lockdep API & structs based on CONFIG_LOCKDEP in hdr
file.
Will be more careful next time.
Please get someone internal to your company/group to review the change
before sending it out for others to find the obvious issues with it.
That's what your peers are for. Please do so and get them to provide a
reviewed-by on it before submitting it again.
Sounds good. I will send the next revision with reviewed-by signature
from a peer.
Thanks,
Amit
