current_obj is declared as a thread-local storage.
This prevent to detect locking problem between multiple threads because
each thread has it's own current_obj. liblockdep can only detect locking problem in a single
thread. However, pthread_mutex_xxx, pthread_rwlock_xxx functions are mainly used for synchro
nization of data between multiple threads.
This patch changes current_obj to non thread-local storage. and current_obj.pid is getting
from getpid system call.

um... It always worked with threads:
$ cat tests/ABBA_threads.c
#include <liblockdep/mutex.h>
#include "common.h"
pthread_mutex_t a, b;
void *thread_a(void *arg)
{
LOCK_UNLOCK_2(a, b);
return NULL;
}
void *thread_b(void *arg)
{
LOCK_UNLOCK_2(b, a);
return NULL;
}
void main(void)
{
pthread_t ta, tb;
pthread_mutex_init(&a, NULL);
pthread_mutex_init(&b, NULL);
pthread_create(&ta, NULL, thread_a, NULL);
pthread_create(&tb, NULL, thread_b, NULL);
pthread_join(ta, NULL);
pthread_join(tb, NULL);
}
$ tests/ABBA_threads
