rqspinlock: Add basic support for CONFIG_PARAVIRT
We ripped out PV and virtualization related bits from rqspinlock in an
earlier commit, however, a fair lock performs poorly within a virtual
machine when the lock holder is preempted. As such, retain the
virt_spin_lock fallback to test and set lock, but with timeout and
deadlock detection. We can do this by simply depending on the
resilient_tas_spin_lock implementation from the previous patch.
We don't integrate support for CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS yet, as that
requires more involved algorithmic changes and introduces more
complexity. It can be done when the need arises in the future.
