Hmm.. should revert

	d82fed752942 ("locking/lockdep/selftests: Fix mixed read-write ABBA tests")

for testing, as it is a work around because of we had limit support for
recursive read lock before.

I put a branch with that reverted at:

 	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/boqun/linux.git arr-rfc-v2a

Selftest passed for that branch, now run it for more time.
