Subject: [PATCH v5 4/4] qrwlock: Use the mcs_spinlock helper functions for MCS queuing

There is a pending patch in the rwsem patch series that adds a generic
MCS locking helper functions to do MCS-style locking. This patch
will enable the queue rwlock to use that generic MCS lock/unlock
primitives for internal queuing. This patch should only be merged
after the merging of that generic MCS locking patch.
