lockdep: Introduce lock_list::dep

To add recursive read locks into the dependency graph, we need to store
the types of dependencies for the BFS later. There are four types of
dependencies:

* Exclusive -> Non-recursive dependencies: EN
e.g. write_lock(prev) held and try to acquire write_lock(next)
or non-recursive read_lock(next), which can be represented as
"prev -(EN)-> next"

* Shared -> Non-recursive dependencies: SN
e.g. read_lock(prev) held and try to acquire write_lock(next) or
non-recursive read_lock(next), which can be represented as
"prev -(SN)-> next"

* Exclusive -> Recursive dependencies: ER
e.g. write_lock(prev) held and try to acquire recursive
read_lock(next), which can be represented as "prev -(ER)-> next"

* Shared -> Recursive dependencies: SR
e.g. read_lock(prev) held and try to acquire recursive
read_lock(next), which can be represented as "prev -(SR)-> next"

So we use 4 bits for the presence of each type in lock_list::dep. Helper
functions and macros are also introduced to convert a pair of locks into
lock_list::dep bit and maintain the addition of different types of
dependencies.
