[PATCH] locks: ignore same lock in blocked_lock_hash

[Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org>]

Andreas reported that he was seeing the tdbtorture test fail in
some cases with -EDEADLCK when it wasn't before. Some debugging
showed that deadlock detection was sometimes discovering the
caller's lock request itself in a dependency chain.

If posix_locks_deadlock() fails to find a deadlock, the caller_fl
will be passed to __locks_insert_block(), and this wakes up all
locks that are blocked on caller_fl, clearing the fl_blocker link.

So if posix_locks_deadlock() finds caller_fl while searching for
a deadlock, it can be sure that link in the cycle is about to be
broken and it need not treat it as the cause of a deadlock.
