ring-buffer: convert to raw spinlocks
Impact: no lockdep debugging of ring buffer The problem with running lockdep on the ring buffer is that the ring buffer is the core infrastructure of ftrace. What happens is that the tracer will start tracing the lockdep code while lockdep is testing the ring buffers locks. This can cause lockdep to fail due to testing cases that have not fully finished their locking transition. This patch converts the spin locks used by the ring buffer back into raw spin locks which lockdep does not check.
