[PATCH] riscv: Fix sleeping in invalid context in die()

[PATCH] riscv: Fix sleeping in invalid context in die()

[Nam Cao]

die() can be called in exception handler, and therefore cannot sleep.
However, die() takes spinlock_t which can sleep with PREEMPT_RT enabled.
That causes the following warning:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48

Switch to use raw_spinlock_t, which does not sleep even with PREEMPT_RT
enabled.

stable backport is probably not needed for versions earlier than 6.12
because PREEMPT_RT is not enabled. But it doesn't hurt..

The die_lock() is probably do let one CPU die at a time. On x86 there is
support for for recursive die so if it happens, you don't spin on the
die_lock and see nothing. Not sure if this is a thing.
