[PATCH V12 07/14] riscv: qspinlock: Add virt_spin_lock() support for VM guest

[guoren@kernel.org]

From: Guo Ren <guoren@linux.alibaba.com>

Add a static key controlling whether virt_spin_lock() should be
called or not. When running on bare metal set the new key to
false.

The VM guests should fall back to a Test-and-Set spinlock,
because fair locks have horrible lock 'holder' preemption issues.
The virt_spin_lock_key would shortcut for the queued_spin_lock_-
slowpath() function that allow virt_spin_lock to hijack it.
