Robin Holt f5f7eac41d Allow rwlocks to re-enable interrupts
Pass the original flags to rwlock arch-code, so that it can re-enable
interrupts if implemented for that architecture.

Initially, make __raw_read_lock_flags and __raw_write_lock_flags stubs
which just do the same thing as non-flags variants.

Kyle McMartin a5ef7ca0e2 x86: spinlocks: define dummy __raw_spin_is_contended
Architectures other than mips and x86 are not using ticket spinlocks.
Therefore, the contention on the lock is meaningless, since there is
nobody known to be waiting on it (arguably /fairly/ unfair locks).

Dummy it out to return 0 on other architectures.

Frederic Weisbecker 2d4d57db69 x86: micro-optimize __raw_read_trylock()
The current version of __raw_read_trylock starts with decrementing the lock
and read its new value as a separate operation after that.

That makes 3 dereferences (read, write (after sub), read) whereas
a single atomic_dec_return does only two pointers dereferences (read, write).

Jiri Kosina afb33f8c0d x86: remove byte locks
Impact: cleanup

Remove byte locks implementation, which was introduced by Jeremy in
8efcbab6 ("paravirt: introduce a "lock-byte" spinlock implementation"),
but turned out to be dead code that is not used by any in-kernel
virtualization guest (Xen uses its own variant of spinlocks implementation
and KVM is not planning to move to byte locks).

H. Peter Anvin 1965aae3c9 x86: Fix ASM_X86__ header guards
Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:

a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
