rwsem: Implement down_read_interruptible
[ Upstream commit 31784cff7ee073b34d6eddabb95e3be2880a425c ] In preparation for converting exec_update_mutex to a rwsem so that multiple readers can execute in parallel and not deadlock, add down_read_interruptible. This is needed for perf_event_open to be converted (with no semantic changes) from working on a mutex to wroking on a rwsem. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
