4fa2ab20f5 lib: spinlock: Trigger a watchdog bite on spin_dump for rwlock
Currently dump_stack is printed once a spin_bug is detected for rwlock.
So provide an options to trigger a panic or watchdog bite for debugging
rwlock magic corruptions and lockups.

e0965e6590 lib: spinlock: Cause a watchdog bite on spin_dump
Currently we cause a BUG_ON once a spin_bug is detected, but
that causes a whole lot of processing and the other CPUs would
have proceeded to perform other actions and the state of the
system is moved by the time we can analyze it.
Provide an option to trigger  a watchdog bite instead so that we
can get the traces as close to the issue as possible.

bc88c10d7e locking/spinlock/debug: Remove spinlock lockup detection code
The current spinlock lockup detection code can sometimes produce false
positives because of the unfairness of the locking algorithm itself.

So the lockup detection code is now removed. Instead, we are relying
on the NMI watchdog to detect potential lockup. We won't have lockup
detection if the watchdog isn't running.

The commented-out read-write lock lockup detection code are also
removed.
