Both arch/um/ and arch/xtensa/ cause a Kconfig warning for LOCKDEP.
These arch-es select LOCKDEP_SUPPORT but they are not listed as one
of the arch-es that LOCKDEP depends on.

Since (16) arch-es define the Kconfig symbol LOCKDEP_SUPPORT if they
intend to have LOCKDEP support, replace the awkward list of
arch-es that LOCKDEP depends on with the LOCKDEP_SUPPORT symbol.

Fixes this kconfig warning: (for both um and xtensa)

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for LOCKDEP
   Depends on [n]: DEBUG_KERNEL [=y] && LOCK_DEBUGGING_SUPPORT [=y] && (FRAME_POINTER [=n] || MIPS || PPC || S390 || MICROBLAZE || ARM || ARC || X86)

Ok - the FRAME_POINTER bit is weird. Are there any architectures that have
FRAME_POINTER defined but no LOCKDEP_SUPPORT?
LOCK_DEBUGGING_SUPPORT depends on LOCKDEP_SUPPORT. So this patch is 
equivalent to just delete the second depends-on line. Beside LOCKDEP, 
LATENCYTOP also have exactly the same depends-on line.

So isn't FRAME_POINTER used mainly to support STACK_TRACE? However, 
LOCK_DEBUGGING_SUPPORT has already included STACK_TRACE_SUPPORT in its 
dependency. So why there is a FRAME_POINTER dependency?

Cheers,
Longman
