From: Waiman Long <longman@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 513e1073d52e55b8024b4f238a48de7587c64ccf ] Tetsuo Handa had reported he saw an incorrect "downgrading a read lock" warning right after a previous lockdep warning. It is likely that the previous warning turned off lock debugging causing the lockdep to have inconsistency states leading to the lock downgrade warning. Fix that by add a check for debug_locks at the beginning of __lock_downgrade().
