Boqun Feng 6d1823ccc4 lockdep: Optimize the memory usage of circular queue
Qian Cai reported a BFS_EQUEUEFULL warning [1] after read recursive
deadlock detection merged into tip tree recently. Unlike the previous
lockep graph searching, which iterate every lock class (every node in
the graph) exactly once, the graph searching for read recurisve deadlock
detection needs to iterate every lock dependency (every edge in the
graph) once, as a result, the maximum memory cost of the circular queue
changes from O(V), where V is the number of lock classes (nodes or
vertices) in the graph, to O(E), where E is the number of lock
dependencies (edges), because every lock class or dependency gets
enqueued once in the BFS. Therefore we hit the BFS_EQUEUEFULL case.

However, actually we don't need to enqueue all dependencies for the BFS,
because every time we enqueue a dependency, we almostly enqueue all
other dependencies in the same dependency list ("almostly" is because
we currently check before enqueue, so if a dependency doesn't pass the
check stage we won't enqueue it, however, we can always do in reverse
ordering), based on this, we can only enqueue the first dependency from
a dependency list and every time we want to fetch a new dependency to
work, we can either:

  1)	fetch the dependency next to the current dependency in the
	dependency list
or

  2)	if the dependency in 1) doesn't exist, fetch the dependency from
	the queue.

With this approach, the "max bfs queue depth" for a x86_64_defconfig +
lockdep and selftest config kernel can get descreased from:

        max bfs queue depth:                   201

to (after apply this patch)

        max bfs queue depth:                   61

While I'm at it, clean up the code logic a little (e.g. directly return
other than set a "ret" value and goto the "exit" label).
