Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] locking/rwsem: Remove arch specific rwsem files

v2:
 - Add patch 2 to optimize __down_read_trylock() as suggested by PeterZ.
 - Update performance test data in patch 1.

This is part 0 of my rwsem patchset. It just removes the architecture
specific files to make it easer to add enhancements in the upcoming
rwsem patches.

Since the two ll/sc platforms that I can tested on (arm64 & ppc) are
both using the generic C codes, the rwsem performance shouldn't be
affected by this patch except the down_read_trylock() code which was
included in patch 2 for arm64.

Waiman Long (2):
  locking/rwsem: Remove arch specific rwsem files
  locking/rwsem: Optimize down_read_trylock()
