H A Dqspinlock.hdiff 20c0e8269e9d515e677670902c7e1cc0209d6ad9 Fri Jul 24 15:14:21 CEST 2020 Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> powerpc/pseries: Implement paravirt qspinlocks for SPLPAR

This implements the generic paravirt qspinlocks using H_PROD and
H_CONFER to kick and wait.

This uses an un-directed yield to any CPU rather than the directed
yield to a pre-empted lock holder that paravirtualised simple
spinlocks use, that requires no kick hcall. This is something that
could be investigated and improved in future.

Performance results can be found in the commit which added queued
spinlocks.
