[PATCH] Fix PPC rwlock code on SMP
Currently, the kernel won't compile for SMP ppc32 if preempt is enabled. This patch adds suitable read_can_lock and write_can_lock definitions. This patch also adds a real _raw_read_trylock (inline and out-of-line versions), changes the rwlock->lock field to a signed int, which is what it really was all along, and cleans up the out-of-line rwlock code in arch/ppc/lib/locks.c. It removes the debug fields from the rwlock struct because we were never using them, even with CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK set. I have compile and boot tested this with the four combinations of CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCKS on and off, and CONFIG_PREEMPT on and off. Please put this patch into 2.6.11 so that 2.6.11 will work for ppc32 with CONFIG_SMP and CONFIG_PREEMPT.
