[PATCH 2.6.12-mm2] UP spinlocks gcc-2.9x fix

[Mikael Pettersson]

The spinlock consolidation patch that was included in 2.6.12-mm2
removed the kernel's fixes for empty structure bugs in gcc-2.95.

This patch re-adds those fixes. It also updates the corresponding
comment to state that the empty structure bug also is present in
early gcc-2.96 versions.
