[PATCH] rwsem: Make rwsems use interrupt disabling spinlocks
The attached patch makes read/write semaphores use interrupt disabling
spinlocks in the slow path, thus rendering the up functions and trylock
functions available for use in interrupt context. This matches the
regular semaphore behaviour.
I've assumed that the normal down functions must be called with interrupts
enabled (since they might schedule), and used the irq-disabling spinlock
variants that don't save the flags.
