[PATCH] locking/lockdep: Increase MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES by half

[Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com>]

It was found by Qian Cai that lockdep splat sometimes appears with the
"BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES too low" message on linux-next. On a 32-vcpu VM
guest with a v5.7-rc7 based kernel, I looked at how many of the various
table entries were being used after bootup and after a parallel kernel
build (make -j32). The tables below show the usage statistics.

  After bootup:

  Table               Used        Max      %age
  -----               ----        ---      ----
  lock_classes[]      1834       8192      22.4
  list_entries[]     15646      32768      47.7
  lock_chains[]      20873      65536      31.8
  chain_hlocks[]     83199     327680      25.4
  stack_trace[]     146177     524288      27.9

  After parallel kernel build:

  Table               Used        Max      %age
  -----               ----        ---      ----
  lock_classes[]      1864       8192      22.8
  list_entries[]     17134      32768      52.3
  lock_chains[]      25196      65536      38.4
  chain_hlocks[]    106321     327680      32.4
  stack_trace[]     158700     524288      30.3

Percentage-wise, it can be seen that the list_entries for direct
dependencies are used much more than the other tables. So it is also
the table that is mostly likely to run out of space when running a
compex workload.

To reduce the likelihood of running out of table entries, we can increase
MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES by 50% from 16384/32768 to 24576/49152.  On a 64-bit
architecture, that represents an increase in memory consumption of
917504 bytes. With that change, the percentage usage of list_entries[]
will fall to 31.8% and 34.9% respectively to make them more in line
with the other tables.
