Instead of making the lock raw, remove it as it protects nothing.
I don't know how you guys are managing the RT branch, but this seems
quite similar to:
a3c8b4faeeccb33dbad6969bc9e50bf409f167e7 (MIPS: Cavium: Remove
smp_reserve_lock.)
Great! Then we don't need to worry about it :-)
But as it doesn't seem that this patch was marked as stable, we will be
carrying it in -rt where we support older kernels.
Should it go to mainline stable?
I don't think it is necessary. As far as I know, RT may be the only
thing that needs it.
