commit d6d3c4e656513dcea61ce900f0ecb9ca820ee7cd
Author: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    OF: convert devtree lock from rw_lock to raw spinlock

    With the locking cleanup in place (from "OF: Fixup resursive
    locking code paths"), we can now do the conversion from the
    rw_lock to a raw spinlock as required for preempt-rt.

    The previous cleanup and this conversion were originally
    separate since they predated when mainline got raw spinlock (in
    commit c2f21ce2e31286a "locking: Implement new raw_spinlock").

    So, at that point in time, the cleanup was considered plausible
    for mainline, but not this conversion.  In any case, we've kept
    them separate as it makes for easier review and better bisection.
