Hrmm,.. this is growing to be very large indeed.

It would be nice to know where all these extra entries are coming from.
How large are:

# cat /proc/lockdep | grep -v -e "\->" -e "^$" | wc -l
437

# cat /proc/lockdep | grep -v -e "\->" -e "^$" | awk '{print $6}' | 
                      tr -d ".:" | grep -v "^$" | wc -c
1031

On your machine?
