All code that uses brlock is gone, so remove header and code.
No changes from earlier version of the patch.

- * 'Big Reader' read-write spinlocks.
- *
- * super-fast read/write locks, with write-side penalty. The point
- * is to have a per-CPU read/write lock. Readers lock their CPU-local
- * readlock, writers must lock all locks to get write access. These
- * CPU-read-write locks are semantically identical to normal rwlocks.
- * Memory usage is higher as well. (NR_CPUS*L1_CACHE_BYTES bytes)
- *
- * The most important feature is that these spinlocks do not cause
- * cacheline ping-pong in the 'most readonly data' case.
- *
- * Copyright 2000, Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
- *
- * Registry idea and naming [ crutial! :-) ] by:
- *
- * David S. Miller <[email protected]>
- *
- * David has an implementation that doesn't use atomic operations in
- * the read branch via memory ordering tricks - i guess we need to
- * split this up into a per-arch thing? The atomicity issue is a
- * secondary item in profiles, at least on x86 platforms.
- *
- * The atomic op version overhead is indeed a big deal on
- * load-locked/store-conditional cpus (ALPHA/MIPS/PPC) and
- * compare-and-swap cpus (Sparc64). So we control which
- * implementation to use with a __BRLOCK_USE_ATOMICS define. -DaveM
