When we have CONFIG_LOCKDEP enabled we get occasionally following warning
on the system console at boot:

 WARNING: at kernel/sched.c:2204 set_task_cpu+0x1a1/0x390()

This is due the fact that printk() disables lockdep before the output is
passed to the actual console driver. If the console driver happens to call
some functions which eventually calls set_task_cpu() we end up failing the
following test:

       WARN_ON_ONCE(debug_locks && !(lockdep_is_held(&p->pi_lock) ||
                                     lockdep_is_held(&task_rq(p)->lock)));

This is because lockdep_is_held() returns 0 if lockdep is temporarily
disabled.

So we check whether lockdep is enabled and only then validate the locks.

I'm not entirely sure if using current->lockdep_recursion is allowed here.
Maybe there is some cleaner way of fixing this, like adding lockdep_is_on()
function or something? RCU seems to use the same variable, though.
