[PATCH 09/10] staging: lustre: remove page_collection::pc_lock in libcfs

[James Simmons]

From: Liang Zhen <liang.zhen@xxxxxxxxx>

page_collection::pc_lock is supposed to protect race between
functions called by smp_call_function(), however we don't have
this use-case for ages and page_collection only lives in stack
of thread, so it is safe to remove it.
