In response to an attempt to expand dev->lockdep_mutex for device_lock()
validation [1], Peter points out [2] that the lockdep API already has
the ability to assign a dedicated lock class per subsystem device-type.

Use lockdep_set_class() to override the default device_lock()
'__lockdep_no_validate__' class for each NVDIMM subsystem device-type. This
enables lockdep to detect deadlocks and recursive locking within the
device-driver core and the subsystem.
