The lock member of struct subchannel used to be a spinlock, but became
a pointer to a spinlock with commit 2ec2298412e1 ("[S390] subchannel
lock conversion."). This might have been justified back then, but with
the current state of affairs, there is no reason to manage a separate
spinlock object.

Let's simplify things and pull the spinlock back into struct subchannel.

I know it is a lot of churn, but I do believe in the end it does make
the code more maintainable.

You are right. Makes the code easy to read and a bit less complex.
Looks good to me. Thanks
