Subject: [PATCH] lockdep: update lockdep_recursion on graph_lock

With the introduction of ftrace, it is possible to recurse into
the lockdep functions via the mcount call. To prevent possible
lockups, updating the lockdep_recursion counter on grabbing the internal
lockdep_lock should prevent deadlocks.
