From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

On PREEMPT_RT rw_semaphores and rwlocks are substituted with a rtmutex and
a reader count. The implementation is writer unfair as it is not feasible
to do priority inheritance on multiple readers, but experience has shown
that realtime workloads are not the typical workloads which are sensitive
to writer starvation.

The inner workings of rw_semaphores and rwlocks on RT are almost identical
except for the task state and signal handling. rw_semaphores are not state
preserving over a contention, they are expected to enter and leave with state
== TASK_RUNNING. rwlocks have a mechanism to preserve the state of the task
at entry and restore it after unblocking taking potential non-lock related
wakeups into account. rw_semaphores can also be subject to signal handling
interrupting a blocked state, while rwlocks ignore signals.

To avoid code duplication, provide a shared implementation which takes the
small difference vs. state and signals into account. The code is included
into the relevant rw_semaphore/rwlock base code and compiled for each use
case separately.
