Subject: [patch V3 28/64] locking/spinlock: Provide RT specific spinlock type

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

RT replaces spinlocks with a simple wrapper around a rtmutex which turns
spinlocks on RT into 'sleeping' spinlocks. The actual implementation of the
spinlock API differs from a regular rtmutex as it does neither handle
timeouts nor signals and it is state preserving across the lock operation.
