Subject[PATCH for review] [109/145] x86_64: Convert modlist_lock to be a raw spinlock
Date
r

This is a preparationary patch for converting stacktrace over to the
new dwarf2 unwinder. lockdep uses stacktrace and the new unwinder
takes the modlist_lock so using a normal spinlock would cause a deadlock.
Use a raw lock instead.
