lglock: introduce special lglock and brlock spin locks

lglock: introduce special lglock and brlock spin locks

This patch introduces "local-global" locks (lglocks). These can be used to:

- Provide fast exclusive access to per-CPU data, with exclusive access to
  another CPU's data allowed but possibly subject to contention, and to provide
  very slow exclusive access to all per-CPU data.
- Or to provide very fast and scalable read serialisation, and to provide
  very slow exclusive serialisation of data (not necessarily per-CPU data).

Brlocks are also implemented as a short-hand notation for the latter use
case.

Thanks to Paul for local/global naming convention.

/*
* Specialised local-global spinlock. Can only be declared as global variables
* to avoid overhead and keep things simple (and we don't want to start using
* these inside dynamically allocated structures).

* "local/global locks" (lglocks) can be used to:
*
* - Provide fast exclusive access to per-CPU data, with exclusive access to
* another CPU's data allowed but possibly subject to contention, and to
* provide very slow exclusive access to all per-CPU data.
