[PATCH RFC 12/26] arm64: Remove spin_unlock_wait() arch-specific definitions

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Thu Jun 29 2017 - 20:10:50 EST


There is no agreed-upon definition of spin_unlock_wait()'s semantics,
and it appears that all callers could do just as well with a lock/unlock
pair. This commit therefore removes the underlying arch-specific
arch_spin_unlock_wait().
