Yes. I was aiming to sell this as an optimisation to upstream but that
patch isn't exactly a beauty queen and that optimisation isn't enormous
so they may not want to buy it.
Also: upstream's lockdep isn't complaining here so the alternative route
is to get RT's lockdep to be quiet here as well and then drop that
patch.
