In current kernfs design a single spinlock, kernfs_open_node_lock, protects
the kernfs_node->attr.open i.e kernfs_open_node instances corresponding to
a sysfs attribute. So even if different tasks are opening or closing
different sysfs files they can contend on this spinlock. The contention is
more apparent in large scale systems with few hundred CPUs where most of
the CPUs have running tasks that are opening, accessing or closing sysfs
files at any point of time.

Using hashed spinlocks in place of a single global spinlock, can
significantly reduce contention around global spinlock and hence provide
better scalability. Moreover as these hashed spinlocks are not part of
kernfs_node objects we will not see any singnificant change in memory
utilization of kernfs based file systems like sysfs, cgroupfs etc.

This patch introduces hashed spinlocks that can be used in place of above
mentioned global spinlock. It also provides interfaces needed to use hashed
spinlocks. The next patch makes use of these interfaces and replaces global
spinlock with hashed ones.
