lockdep: more robust lockdep_map init sequence

Ah, nice catch. I think we should put at least the name in regardless.

Ensure we at least initialize the trivial entries of the depmap so that
they can be relied upon, even when lockdep itself decided to pack up and
go home.

[ Impact: fix lock tracing after lockdep warnings. ]
