Subject: [PATCH 3.18 130/183] reset: sunxi: fix spinlock initialization

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tyler Baker <tyler.baker@...aro.org>

commit 41544f9f38f19cb46dc9a8fa37c58677a0300899 upstream.

Call spin_lock_init() before the spinlocks are used, both in early init
and probe functions preventing a lockdep splat.

I have been observing lockdep complaining [1] during boot on my a80 optimus [2]
when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING has been enabled. This patch resolves the splat,
and has been tested on a few other sunxi platforms without issue.
