ARM: 6521/1: perf: use raw_spinlock_t for pmu_lock
For kernels built with PREEMPT_RT, critical sections protected by standard spinlocks are preemptible. This is not acceptable on perf as (a) we may be scheduled onto a different CPU whilst reading/writing banked PMU registers and (b) the latency when reading the PMU registers becomes unpredictable. This patch upgrades the pmu_lock spinlock to a raw_spinlock instead.
