locking/rwsem: Set lock ownership ASAP
In order to optimize the spinning step, we need to set the lock
owner as soon as the lock is acquired; after a successful counter
cmpxchg operation, that is. This is particularly useful as rwsems
need to set the owner to nil for readers, so there is a greater
chance of falling out of the spinning. Currently we only set the
owner much later in the game, in the more generic level -- latency
can be specially bad when waiting for a node->next pointer when
releasing the osq in up_write calls.
As such, update the owner inside rwsem_try_write_lock (when the
lock is obtained after blocking) and rwsem_try_write_lock_unqueued
(when the lock is obtained while spinning). This requires creating
a new internal rwsem.h header to share the owner related calls.
Also cleanup some headers for mutex and rwsem.
