Updated with everybody's feedback (thanks all), and more performance
results.

What I've found is I might have been measuring the worst load point for
the paravirt case, and by looking at a range of loads it's clear that
queued spinlocks are overall better even on PV, doubly so when you look
at the generally much improved worst case latencies.

I have defaulted it to N even though I'm less concerned about the PV
numbers now, just because I think it needs more stress testing. But
it's very nicely selectable so should be low risk to include.

All in all this is a very cool technology and great results especially
on the big systems but even on smaller ones there are nice gains. Thanks
Waiman and everyone who developed it.

Thanks,
Nick

  powerpc/pseries: move some PAPR paravirt functions to their own file
  powerpc: move spinlock implementation to simple_spinlock
  powerpc/64s: implement queued spinlocks and rwlocks
  powerpc/pseries: implement paravirt qspinlocks for SPLPAR
  powerpc/qspinlock: optimised atomic_try_cmpxchg_lock that adds the
    lock hint
  powerpc: implement smp_cond_load_relaxed
