Err? Why did you include my response as commit message? It does not
really make sense.

Let me point this once again:
1. The commit message is inaccurate because CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR does
not validate the locks.
2. Please write proper commit message describing WHY you want to add
this config option.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
