The recent fix for adding rwsem nesting annotation was using the given
"hop" argument as the lock subclass key. Although the idea itself
works, it may trigger a kernel warning like:
BUG: looking up invalid subclass: 8
....
since the lockdep has a smaller number of subclasses (8) than we
currently allow for the hops there (10).
The current definition is merely a sanity check for avoiding the too
deep delivery paths, and the 8 hops are already enough. So, as a
quick fix, just follow the max hops as same as the max lockdep
subclasses.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
