As we kmalloc our dynamic sysfs attributes, we have to give them an
external static lock_class_key for them to use with lockdep.

You beat me to it, after I noticed the report on IRC and started 
digging, just to find sysfs_attr_init, your fix arrived. Thanks!

It looks like a standard way of silencing lockdep for this case, 
although I am not sure what exactly is the purpose of lock class keys in 
sysfs attributes, and what this kind of defeat could also imply.

I planned to do it another loop, iterating the attr array, but I don't 
see how it matters. It would be one static key versus the two. :?

Looks like it did the job. Thanks for double checking, and pushed,

It shouldn't as far as I'm aware. I'm conscious that each static attr
has its own lockclass, but dynamic users tend to have a shared
lockclass. It shouldn't matter unless we nest the sysfs operations?
