Yeah, I think kernel/locking/ would be a suitable place for those, and I'd
move lockdep*.c there too. (Such things are best done near the end of a
merge window, when there's not much pending, to not disrupt development.)
kernel/*.c is a pretty crowded place with 100+ files currently, I've been
gradually working towards depopulating it slowly but surely for subsystems
that I co-maintain or where I'm frequently active. We already have:
kernel/sched/
kernel/events/
kernel/irq/
kernel/time/
kernel/trace/
and the deeper kernel/*/* hierarchies already host another ~100 .c files.
So the transition is half done already I suspect.
Thanks,
Ingo
