It's a simple kernel build test in small memory system.
4-core and 750M memory with zram-4G swap.

Acutually, before the reporting, I tested below hunk and confirmed it doesn't
make lockdep warn any more. But I doubted it's okay for non-nested case
(i.e., setup_swap_map_and_extends) for lockdep subclass working.
I guess it's no problem but not sure so I just reported it without fixing
by myself. :)
If it's no problem, I'm sure both patches from you guys would work well
but I prefer Hugh's patch which makes it simple/clear.
Thanks.
