Subject: [PATCH] am79c961a: fix spin_lock usage

spin_lock functions take a pointer to the lock, not the lock itself.
This error was noticed by compiling ebsa110_defconfig for linux-rt where
the locking functions obviously are more picky about their arguments.

Hello,

unrelated to that, with arm-linux-gnu-gcc 4.3.2 I get some warnings when
compiling am79c961a.c:

/tmp/ccAfRLG9.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccAfRLG9.s:77: Warning: register range not in ascending order
/tmp/ccAfRLG9.s:615: Warning: register range not in ascending order
/tmp/ccAfRLG9.s:1242: Warning: register range not in ascending order

These correspond to lines 107[1] and 144 in am79c961a.c where inline
assembly is used.  E.g

	stm%?ia        %1!, {%2, %3}

so the order depends on the compilers choice for %2 and %3.

Best regards
Uwe

[1] 77 and 615 in the .s file both correspond to 107 in am79c961a.c.
