i'm wondering, is the conversion to raw_spinlock_t absolutely necessary
to get a working PARISC kernel? I feel a bit uneasy about using the raw
spinlocks directly - they were not intended to be used like that, for
the time being. Right now they are internal types. You should be able to
use spinlock_types.h just as much to simplify your include file
dependencies. (as long as you use the spinlock APIs only in .c files)
