    Subject: lockdep: taint kernel on circular locking complains
    Date: Mon, 23 Sep 2013 20:04:29 +0400
    
    Currently our QA infrastructure cannot efficiently grep kernel logs
    and analyze them thus lockdep complains are lost.
    
    Let's taint kernel on lockdep complains - that way we will not miss
    possible problems reported by lockdep.
    
    This change is a subject to be rolled back when QA begins to parse kernel
    logs.
    
    Changes from v1:
    * lockdep disables itself due do a number of reasons, we want to catch
      all of them => let's taint kernel on disabling lockdep, does not matter
      due to what exact reason

    Subject: lockdep: add tain TAINT_CRAP only once
    Date: Thu, 23 Jan 2014 17:47:36 +0400
    
    And do it after disabling lockdep. Otherwise we can be caught in a loop,
    if debug_locks_off will be called from add_taint().
    
    The 'sysctl -w kernel.tainted=0xffffffff' command does that on
    my host with the 85.6 kernel.
