2.6.15-rc5-rt2 and Kconfig

[Esben Nielsen]

For some strange reason I couldn't get 2.6.15-rc5-rt2 to compile. Kconfig
keeped setting CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM=y in my .config even though
I had CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y.
I don't know much about Kconfig but to me it is odd that  the
RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM option is both in arch/i386/Kconfig and
arch/i386/Kconfig.cpu with different dependencies. 
When I removed it from Kconfig.cpu my problem disappeared and I could
compile. But I have no clue what else this change does to the config
system....
