[PATCH v3 13/18] locking/lockdep: Change type of the element field in circular_queue

From: Yuyang Du
Date: Thu Mar 21 2019 - 03:58:17 EST


The element field is an array in struct circular_queue to keep track of locks
in the search. Making it the same type as the locks avoids type cast. Also
fix a typo and elaborate the comment above struct circular_queue.

No functional change.
