[PATCH v7 04/23] locking/lockdep: Avoid that add_chain_cache() adds an invalid chain to the cache

From: Bart Van Assche
Date: Thu Feb 14 2019 - 18:01:42 EST


Make sure that add_chain_cache() returns 0 and does not modify the
chain hash if nr_chain_hlocks == MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS before this
function is called.
