[PATCH RFC 0/2] hyperv: Use raw_spinlock_t when not sleepable

From: Mitchell Levy via B4 Relay

When compiled with PREEMPT_RT, spinlock_t is sleepable. While I did not
observe this causing any lockups on my system, it did cause warnings to
be emitted when compiled with lock debugging. This series fixes some
instances where spinlock_t is used in non-sleepable contexts, though it
almost certainly does not find every such instance.

An example of the warning raised by lockdep:
=============================
[BUG: Invalid wait context ]
6.5.0-rc1+ #16 Not tainted
-----------------------------
swapper/0/1 is trying to lock:
ffffa05a014d64c0 (&channel→sched_lock) {...}-{3:3}, at: vmbus_isr+0x179/0x320
other info that might help us debug this:
context-{2:2}
2 locks held by swapper/0/1:
