// ranks describes the lock rank graph. See "go doc internal/dag" for
// the syntax.
//
// "a < b" means a must be acquired before b if both are held
// (or, if b is held, a cannot be acquired).
//
// "NONE < a" means no locks may be held when a is acquired.
//
// If a lock is not given a rank, then it is assumed to be a leaf
// lock, which means no other lock can be acquired while it is held.
// Therefore, leaf locks do not need to be given an explicit rank.
//
// Ranks in all caps are pseudo-nodes that help define order, but do
// not actually define a rank.
//
// TODO: It's often hard to correlate rank names to locks. Change
// these to be more consistent with the locks they label.
