This isn't actually relevant... <asm/rwsem.h> isn't actually used unless
CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK is turned off, which it isn't if the CPU type is
configured to "i386":
[arch/i386/config.in]
if [ "$CONFIG_M386" = "y" ]; then
define_bool CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG n
define_bool CONFIG_X86_XADD n
define_int CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT 4
define_bool CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK y
define_bool CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM n
else
define_bool CONFIG_X86_WP_WORKS_OK y
define_bool CONFIG_X86_INVLPG y
define_bool CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG y
define_bool CONFIG_X86_XADD y
define_bool CONFIG_X86_BSWAP y
define_bool CONFIG_X86_POPAD_OK y
define_bool CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK n
define_bool CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM y
