[ Upstream commit b3b9c187dc2544923a601733a85352b9ddaba9b3 ]
There are currently three counters to track the IRQ context of a lock
chain - nr_hardirq_chains, nr_softirq_chains and nr_process_chains.
They are incremented when a new lock chain is added, but they are
not decremented when a lock chain is removed. That causes some of the
statistic counts reported by /proc/lockdep_stats to be incorrect.
IRQ
Fix that by decrementing the right counter when a lock chain is removed.
Since inc_chains() no longer accesses hardirq_context and softirq_context
directly, it is moved out from the CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS conditional
compilation block.
Fixes:

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
