The sequence

        static DEFINE_WW_CLASS(test_ww_class);

        struct ww_acquire_ctx ww_ctx;
        struct ww_mutex ww_lock_a;
        struct ww_mutex ww_lock_b;
        struct ww_mutex ww_lock_c;
        struct mutex lock_c;

        ww_acquire_init(&ww_ctx, &test_ww_class);

        ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_a, &test_ww_class);
        ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_b, &test_ww_class);
        ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_c, &test_ww_class);

        mutex_init(&lock_c);

        ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_a, &ww_ctx);

        mutex_lock(&lock_c);

        ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_b, &ww_ctx);
        ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_c, &ww_ctx);

        mutex_unlock(&lock_c);  (*)

        ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_c);
        ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_b);
        ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_a);

        ww_acquire_fini(&ww_ctx); (**)

will trigger the following error in __lock_release() when calling
mutex_release() at **:

        DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(depth <= 0)

The problem is that the hlock merging happening at * updates the
references for test_ww_class incorrectly to 3 whereas it should've
updated it to 4 (representing all the instances for ww_ctx and
ww_lock_[abc]).

Fix this by updating the references during merging correctly taking into
account that we can have non-zero references (both for the hlock that we
merge into another hlock or for the hlock we are merging into).

v2: (Peter)
- Rebase on latest upstream tree.
- Sanitize overflow check and hlock_references() helper.
