rwlocks do not currently have any facility to detect contention
like spinlocks do. In order to allow users of rwlocks to better manage
latency, add contention detection for queued rwlocks.

As said in another thread, qspinlock and qrwlock can be independently enabled for an architecture. So we shouldn't include qspinlock.h here. Instead, just include the regular linux/spinlock.h file to make sure that arch_spin_is_locked() is available.
