Subject: [PATCH 3.18 36/50] pstore: Use dynamic spinlock initializer

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>

commit e9a330c4289f2ba1ca4bf98c2b430ab165a8931b upstream.

The per-prz spinlock should be using the dynamic initializer so that
lockdep can correctly track it. Without this, under lockdep, we get a
warning at boot that the lock is in non-static memory.

Fixes: 109704492ef6 ("pstore: Make spinlock per zone instead of global")
Fixes: 76d5692a5803 ("pstore: Correctly initialize spinlock and flags")
