lockdep: Reintroduce generation count to make BFS faster

We still can apply DaveM's generation count optimization to
BFS, based on the following idea:

 - before doing each BFS, increase the global generation id
   by 1

 - if one node in the graph has been visited, mark it as
   visited by storing the current global generation id into
   the node's dep_gen_id field

 - so we can decide if one node has been visited already, by
   comparing the node's dep_gen_id with the global generation id.

By applying DaveM's generation count optimization to current
implementation of BFS, we gain the following advantages:

 - we save MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES/8 bytes memory;

 - we remove the bitmap_zero(bfs_accessed, MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES);
   in each BFS, which is very time-consuming since
   MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES may be very large.(16384UL)
