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.
