Subject: [PATCH v8 10/10] MCS Lock: Make mcs_spinlock.h includable in other files

The following changes are made to enable mcs_spinlock.h file to be
widely included in other files without causing problem:

1) Include a number of prerequisite header files and define
   arch_mutex_cpu_relax(), if not previously defined.
2) Separate out mcs_spin_lock() into a mcs_spinlock.c file.
3) Make mcs_spin_unlock() an inlined function.

Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@...com>
