[PATCH v3] pipe: use __pipe_{lock,unlock} instead of spinlock

[Hongchen Zhang <zhanghongchen@loongson.cn>]

Use spinlock in pipe_read/write cost too much time,IMO
pipe->{head,tail} can be protected by __pipe_{lock,unlock}.
On the other hand, we can use __pipe_{lock,unlock} to protect
the pipe->{head,tail} in pipe_resize_ring and
post_one_notification.

I tested this patch using UnixBench's pipe test case on a x86_64
machine,and get the following data:
1) before this patch
System Benchmarks Partial Index  BASELINE       RESULT    INDEX
Pipe Throughput                   12440.0     493023.3    396.3
                                                        ========
System Benchmarks Index Score (Partial Only)              396.3

2) after this patch
System Benchmarks Partial Index  BASELINE       RESULT    INDEX
Pipe Throughput                   12440.0     507551.4    408.0
                                                        ========
System Benchmarks Index Score (Partial Only)              408.0

so we get ~3% speedup.
