Use spinlock in pipe_read/write cost too much time,IMO
pipe->{head,tail} can be protected by __pipe_{lock,unlock}.
On the other hand, we can use __pipe_{lock,unlock} to protect
the pipe->{head,tail} in pipe_resize_ring and
post_one_notification.

I tested this patch using UnixBench's pipe test case on a x86_64
machine,and get the following data:
1) before this patch
System Benchmarks Partial Index  BASELINE       RESULT    INDEX
Pipe Throughput                   12440.0     493023.3    396.3
                                                         ========
System Benchmarks Index Score (Partial Only)              396.3

2) after this patch
System Benchmarks Partial Index  BASELINE       RESULT    INDEX
Pipe Throughput                   12440.0     507551.4    408.0
                                                         ========
System Benchmarks Index Score (Partial Only)              408.0

so we get ~3% speedup.

After the above "---" line you should have the changlog descrption.
For instance:

v3:
   - fixes bleh blah blah
v2:
   - fixes 0-day report by ... etc..
   - fixes spelling or whatever

I cannot decipher what you did here differently, not do I want to go
looking and diff'ing. So you are making the life of reviewer harder.


Happy new 2023.

Positive wording... You can make reviewers' life easy when...
(encourage people).
Life is easy, people live hard.

+1 Adding ChangeLog of patch history

Cannot say...
Might be good to add the link to Linus test-case + your results in the
commit message as well?

...
Link: https://git.kernel.org/linus/0ddad21d3e99 (test-case of Linus
suggested-by Andrew)
...

Thanks.

Best regards,
