Currently our QA infrastructure cannot efficiently grep kernel logs
and analyze them thus lockdep complains are lost.
Let's taint kernel on lockdep complains - that way we will not miss
possible problems reported by lockdep.
This change is a subject to be rolled back when QA begins to parse kernel
logs.
Changes from v1:
* lockdep disables itself due do a number of reasons, we want to catch
all of them => let's taint kernel on disabling lockdep, does not matter
due to what exact reason

And do it after disabling lockdep. Otherwise we can be caught in a loop,
if debug_locks_off will be called from add_taint().
The 'sysctl -w kernel.tainted=0xffffffff' command does that on
my host with the 85.6 kernel.
