locking/lockdep: Don't complain about incorrect name for no validate class
It is possible to ignore the validation for a certain lock by using: lockdep_set_novalidate_class() on it. Each invocation will assign a new name to the class it created for created __lockdep_no_validate__. That means that once lockdep_set_novalidate_class() has been used on two locks then class->name won't match lock->name for the first lock triggering the warning. So ignore changed non-matching ->name pointer for the special __lockdep_no_validate__ class.
