Subject: [PATCH v6 6/7] rqspinlock: use smp_cond_load_acquire_timeout()

Switch out the conditional load interfaces used by rqspinlock
to atomic_cond_read_acquire_timeout() and,
smp_cond_read_acquire_timeout().

Both these handle the timeout and amortize as needed, so use
check_timeout() directly.

Also, when using spin-wait implementations, redefine SMP_TIMEOUT_POLL_COUNT
to be 16k to be similar to the spin-count used in RES_CHECK_TIMEOUT().
