rcu: Silence lockdep false positive for expedited grace periods

Browse Source 
In a CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernel, synchronize_rcu_expedited()
acquires the ->exp_funnel_mutex in rcu_preempt_state, then invokes
synchronize_sched_expedited, which acquires the ->exp_funnel_mutex in
rcu_sched_state.  There can be no deadlock because rcu_preempt_state
->exp_funnel_mutex acquisition always precedes that of rcu_sched_state.
But lockdep does not know that, so it gives false-positive splats.

This commit therefore associates a separate lock_class_key structure
with the rcu_sched_state structure's ->exp_funnel_mutex, allowing
lockdep to see the lock ordering, avoiding the false positives.
