This is new to me. But it seems like, for the vast majority cases, user
can still continue to use spin_lock as it is without needing to worry
about the underlying difference between standard or RT kernels. But in
certain cases, e.g., irq_chips, extra care needs to be done, i.e.,
switching to use raw spin lock to make sure that it is not blocking in
the case of RT.

Is such API use change well accepted by the open source community already?

Thanks,

Ray
