We eat up a even more memory I guess.

kernel/lockdep_internals.h:#define MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAINS_BITS      15
kernel/lockdep_internals.h:#define MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAINS   (1UL << 
MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAINS_BITS)

I had to increase MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES on my local tree already because
I was hitting that limit.

I'll add that to my tree until it gets mainlined.
