locking: Allow arch-inlined spinlocks
This allows an architecture to specify per lock variant if the locking code should be kept out-of-line or inlined. If an architecure wants out-of-line locking code no change is needed. To force inlining of e.g. spin_lock() the line: #define __always_inline__spin_lock needs to be added to arch/<...>/include/asm/spinlock.h If CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK or CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK are defined the per architecture defines are (partly) ignored and still out-of-line spinlock code will be generated.
