locktorture: Add nested_[un]lock() hooks and nlocks parameter
In order to extend locktorture to support lock nesting, add nested_lock() and nested_unlock() hooks to the torture ops. These take a 32bit lockset mask which is generated at random, so some number of locks will be taken before the main lock is taken and released afterwards. Additionally, add nested_locks module parameter to allow specifying the number of nested locks to be used. This has been helpful to uncover issues in the proxy-exec series development. This was inspired by locktorture extensions originally implemented by Connor O'Brien, for stress testing the proxy-execution series: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221003214501.2050087-12-connoro@google.com/ Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: "Paul E.
