Yes... I concerned it at first, but I thought it would be ok since
CONFIG_LOCKDEP_PAGE is a debug feature. Anyway, I will try to reduce
the size of struct cross_lock which is only thing I can do to reduce
it, since we cannot avoid using lockdep_map if we want to make
lock_page() participate in the lockdep play.
