Currently this counter shown in /proc/lockdep if CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y
This patch disables it completely if this option is disabled.

This counter might be useful for debugging lockdep itself, but for normal
debugging it seems useless. Lockstat provides more detailed statistics.

This atomic_inc is a hot spot inside __lock_acquire() for debug kernel.

With patch "netperf -H localhost" shows some boost: 2500 -> 2600
