Subject: [PATCH CSDlock 1/4] locking/csd_lock: Add Kconfig option for csd_debug default

The csd_debug kernel parameter works well, but is inconvenient in cases
where it is more closely associated with boot loaders or automation than
with a particular kernel version or release.  Thererfore, provide a new
CSD_LOCK_WAIT_DEBUG_DEFAULT Kconfig option that defaults csd_debug to
1 when selected and 0 otherwise, with this latter being the default.
