liblockdep for Debian
---------------------
liblockdep does not have proper documentation, but these articles
provide an introduction:
https://lwn.net/Articles/536363/
http://www.vctlabs.com/posts/2014/Jul/09/liblockdep/
'lockdep-design.txt' explains some more detail about what lockdep
does, both in the kernel and as liblockdep.
