Indeed so. I've added the below on top.

Subject: seqlock,lockdep: Fix seqcount_latch_init()
From: Peter Zijlstra <pet...@infradead.org>

seqcount_init() must be a macro in order to preserve the static
variable that is used for the lockdep key. Don't then wrap it in an
inline function, which destroys that.
Luckily there aren't many users of this function, but fix it before it
becomes a problem.
