[PARISC] Fix our spinlock implementation
We actually have two separate bad bugs
1. The read_lock implementation spins with disabled interrupts. This is
completely wrong
2. Our spin_lock_irqsave should check to see if interrupts were enabled
before the call and re-enable interrupts around the inner spin loop.
The problem is that if we spin with interrupts off, we can't receive
IPIs. This has resulted in a bug where SMP machines suddenly spit
smp_call_function timeout messages and hang.
The scenario I've caught is
CPU0 does a flush_tlb_all holding the vmlist_lock for write.
CPU1 tries a cat of /proc/meminfo which tries to acquire vmlist_lock for
read
CPU1 is now spinning with interrupts disabled
CPU0 tries to execute a smp_call_function to flush the local tlb caches
This is now a deadlock because CPU1 is spinning with interrupts disabled
and can never receive the IPI
