lockdep/selftest: Add a R-L/L-W test case specific to chain cache behavior
As our chain cache doesn't differ read/write locks, so even we can detect a read-lock/lock-write deadlock in check_noncircular(), we can still be fooled if a read-lock/lock-read case(which is not a deadlock) comes first. So introduce this test case to test specific to the chain cache behavior on detecting recursive read lock related deadlocks.
