Subject: [PATCH 1/7] rwsem-spinlock: Add killable versions of __down_read()

Rename __down_read() in __down_read_common() and teach it
to abort waiting in case of pending signals and killable
state argument passed.

Note, that we shouldn't wake anybody up in EINTR path, as:

We check for signal_pending_state() after (!waiter.task)
test and under spinlock. So, current task wasn't able to
be woken up. It may be in two cases: a writer is owner
of the sem, or a writer is a first waiter of the sem.

If a writer is owner of the sem, no one else may work
with it in parallel. It will wake somebody, when it
call up_write() or downgrade_write().

If a writer is the first waiter, it will be woken up,
when the last active reader releases the sem, and
sem->count became 0.

Also note, that set_current_state() may be moved down
to schedule() (after !waiter.task check), as all
assignments in this type of semaphore (including wake_up),
occur under spinlock, so we can't miss anything.
