[PATCH] 2.5.3 Can't use spin_lock_* with wait_queue_head_t object.

[PATCH] 2.5.3 Can't use spin_lock_* with wait_queue_head_t object.

There is code in sched.c that uses the spin_lock_* interfaces to acquire and
release the lock in the wait_queue_head_t embedded in the struct completion.

This is wrong and causes the system to OPPs on startup when compiled with
wait.h:USE_RW_WAIT_QUEUE_SPINLOCK set to 1. The patch below changes the
spin_lock_* calls to wq_write_lock_*.
