Subject: [PATCH] refscale: Convert test_lock spinlock to raw_spinlock

In PREEMPT_RT kernel, the spinlock are replaced by sleepable rt_mutex.
in a critical section where preemption is disabled this will trigger
calltrace like the following:

BUG: scheduling while atomic: ref_scale_reade/76/0x00000002
Preemption disabled at:
ref_lock_section+0x16/0x80
Call Trace:

</TASK>

Convert spinlock to raw_spinlock to fix it.
