[S390] Don't use small stacks when lockdep is used.

The lock dependency validator adds a bunch of extra stack frames to
the stack, which can cause stack overflows. Especially seen on 31 bit
where the small stack is only 4k.

 	  If you say Y here and the compiler supports the -mkernel-backchain
 	  option the kernel will use a smaller kernel stack size. For 31 bit
