[patch 3/3] spinlock fix #3: type-checking spinlock primitives, x86

[Ingo Molnar]

[this patch didnt change due to can_lock but i've resent it so that the
patch stream is complete.]

--
this patch would have caught the bug in -BK-curr (that patch #1 fixes),
via a compiler warning. Test-built/booted on x86.
