So essentially you are proposing that we have to play "whack-a-mole"
as we find false positives, and where we may have to put in ad-hoc
plumbing to only invalidate "a problematic waiter" when it's
problematic --- or to entirely suppress the problematic waiter
altogether.  And in that case, a file system developer might be forced
to invalidate a lock/"waiter"/"completion" in another subsystem.

I will also remind you that doing this will trigger a checkpatch.pl
*error*:

ERROR("LOCKDEP", "lockdep_no_validate class is reserved for device->mutex.\n" . $herecurr);
