Simplify locking in the case where the guest's runstate_info is split
across two pages by sharing a single lock for the two gpcs.

I tested this patch with xen_shinfo_test as suggested, and it still
passes. I agree that it makes sense to do this as a seperate patch. For
the bot reported issue, looks like I forgot to build with lockdep
enabled. I'll fix the issue with that patch in the next revision of the
series, so that there aren't any commits which don't build.
