[PATCH] s390: Increase spinlock retry code performance

Currently the code tries up to spin_retry times to grab a lock using the cs
instruction.  The cs instruction has exclusive access to a memory region
and therefore invalidates the appropiate cache line of all other cpus.  If
there is contention on a lock this leads to cache line trashing.  This can
be avoided if we first check wether a cs instruction is likely to succeed
before the instruction gets actually executed.
