This patch removes the logic previously introduced to address the starvation
on cp_rwsem.
One potential there-in bug is that we should cover the wait.list with spin_lock,
but the previous code broke this rule.
And, actually current rwsem handles this starvation issue reasonably, so that we
didn't need to do this before neither.
