Subject: [PATCH RT]  rt: add rwsem_is_contended() definition to rwsem_rt.h

Thomas,

The latest btrfs code uses rwsem_is_contended() in the function
caching_thread(). On RT systems, include/linux/rwsem.h is replaced with
include/linux/rwsem_rt.h which does not provide a definition for
rwsem_is_contended().  This commit provides a definition that should
work on RT (where the lock is actually an rt_mutex).
