locking/local_lock: Add local nested BH locking infrastructure.
Add local_lock_nested_bh() locking. It is based on local_lock_t and the naming follows the preempt_disable_nested() example. For !PREEMPT_RT + !LOCKDEP it is a per-CPU annotation for locking assumptions based on local_bh_disable(). The macro is optimized away during compilation. For !PREEMPT_RT + LOCKDEP the local_lock_nested_bh() is reduced to the usual lock-acquire plus lockdep_assert_in_softirq() - ensuring that BH is disabled. For PREEMPT_RT local_lock_nested_bh() acquires the specified per-CPU lock. It does not disable CPU migration because it relies on local_bh_disable() disabling CPU migration. With LOCKDEP it performans the usual lockdep checks as with !PREEMPT_RT. Due to include hell the softirq check has been moved spinlock.c. The intention is to use this locking in places where locking of a per-CPU variable relies on BH being disabled. Instead of treating disabled bottom halves as a big per-CPU lock, PREEMPT_RT can use this to reduce the locking scope to what actually needs protecting. A side effect is that it also documents the protection scope of the per-CPU variables.
