locking: Introduce qrwlock

This rwlock uses the arch_spin_lock_t as a waitqueue, and assuming the
arch_spin_lock_t is a fair lock (ticket,mcs etc..) the resulting
rwlock is a fair lock.

It fits in the same 8 bytes as the regular rwlock_t by folding the
reader and writer count into a single integer, using the remaining 4
bytes for the arch_spinlock_t.

Architectures that can single-copy adress bytes can optimize
queue_write_unlock() with a 0 write to the LSB (the write count).

Performance as measured by Davidlohr Bueso (rwlock_t -> qrwlock_t):

+--------------+-------------+---------------+
| Workload | #users | delta |
+--------------+-------------+---------------+
| alltests | > 1400 | -4.83% |
| custom | 0-100,> 100 | +1.43%,-1.57% |
| high_systime | > 1000 | -2.61 |
| shared | all | +0.32 |
+--------------+-------------+---------------+
