lockdep: increase MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES

Now that lockdep coverage has increased it has become easier to
run out of entries:

[   21.401387] BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES too low!
[   21.402007] turning off the locking correctness validator.
[   21.402007] Pid: 1555, comm: S99local Not tainted 2.6.30-rc5-tip #2
[   21.402007] Call Trace:

[   21.402007]  [<ffffffff8153aedc>] _spin_lock+0x31/0x66

Double the size - as we've done in the past.

[ Impact: allow lockdep to cover more locks ]
