When lockdep fails while performing the Breadth-first-search operation
due to lack of memory, hint that increasing the value of the config
switch LOCKDEP_CIRCULAR_QUEUE_BITS should fix the warning.

Preface the scary backtrace with the suggestion:

    [  163.849242] Increase LOCKDEP_CIRCULAR_QUEUE_BITS to avoid this warning:
    [  163.849248] ------------[ cut here ]------------
    [  163.849250] lockdep bfs error:-1
    [  163.849263] WARNING: CPU: 24 PID: 2454 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:2091 print_bfs_bug+0x27/0x40
