[NET]: Set a separate lockdep class for neighbour table's proxy_queue
Otherwise the following calltrace will lead to a wrong lockdep warning: neigh_proxy_process() `- lock(neigh_table->proxy_queue.lock); arp_redo /* via tbl->proxy_redo */ arp_process neigh_event_ns neigh_update skb_queue_purge `- lock(neighbor->arp_queue.lock); This is not a deadlock actually, as neighbor table's proxy_queue and the neighbor's arp_queue are different queues. Lockdep thinks there is a deadlock as both queues are initialized with skb_queue_head_init() and thus have a common class. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
