[patch V2 1/7] locking/lockdep: Add Kconfig option for bit spinlocks

[Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>]

Some usage sites of bit spinlocks have a substitution with regular
spinlocks which depends on CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. But this substitution can
also be used to expose these locks to the regular lock debugging
infrastructure, e.g. lockdep.

As this increases the size of affected data structures significantly this
is guarded by a separate Kconfig switch.

Note, that only the bit spinlocks which have a substitution implemented
will be covered by this. All other bit spinlocks evade lock debugging as
before.
