commit 93b465c2e186d96fb90012ba0f9372eb9952e732 upstream.
Since we're using non-atomic radix tree allocations, we
should be protecting the tree using a mutex and not a
spinlock.
Non-atomic allocations and process context locking is good enough,
as the tree is manipulated only when locks are registered/
unregistered/requested/freed.
The locks themselves are still protected by spinlocks of course,
and mutexes are not involved in the locking/unlocking paths.

Currently only OMAP4 supports hwspinlocks, so don't bother asking
anyone else.

Add hwspinlock support for the OMAP4 Hardware Spinlock device.
The Hardware Spinlock device on OMAP4 provides hardware assistance
for synchronization between the multiple processors in the system
(dual Cortex-A9, dual Cortex-M3 and a C64x+ DSP).

Add a platform-independent hwspinlock framework.
Hardware spinlock devices are needed, e.g., in order to access data
that is shared between remote processors, that otherwise have no
alternative mechanism to accomplish synchronization and mutual exclusion
operations.
