lockdep: Fix a race between /proc/lock_stat and module unload
The lock_class iteration of /proc/lock_stat is not serialized against the lockdep_free_key_range() call from module unload. Therefore it can happen that we find a class of which ->name/->key are no longer valid. There is a further bug in zap_class() that left ->name dangling. Cure this. Use RCU_INIT_POINTER() because NULL. Since lockdep_free_key_range() is rcu_sched serialized, we can read both ->name and ->key under rcu_read_lock_sched() (preempt-disable) and be assured that if we observe a !NULL value it stays safe to use for as long as we hold that lock. If we observe both NULL, skip the entry.
