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.

David Daney 0e6826c73c MIPS: __raw_spin_lock() may spin forever on ticket wrap.
If the lock is not acquired and has to spin *and* the second attempt
to acquire the lock fails, the delay time is not masked by the ticket
range mask.  If the ticket number wraps around to zero, the result is
that the lock sampling delay is essentially infinite (due to casting
-1 to an unsigned int).

The fix: Always mask the difference between my_ticket and the current
ticket value before calculating the delay.

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.
