Relax the rule to set PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING by default only for arches
that supports PREEMPT_RT.  For arches that do not support PREEMPT_RT,
they will not be forced to address irrelevant raw lock nesting issues
when they want to enable PROVE_LOCKING.

I don't like the wording here. It is not "irrelevant raw lock nesting
issues". This is documented in Documentation/locking/locktypes.rst.
*IFF* we agree to ignore those because we don't want PREEMPT_RT on
certain architectures then okay. But please don't describe it as
irrelevant.

Sorry for that. I will post a v2 patch to fix the wording.

Cheers,
