So I missed this part - you are not touching the hardware here at all - and so we
don't really need the spin lock check. Nevertheless, as you said off list, this
patch is more of a hack and we really need to find a saner way of doing this !

@Marc, @tglx any guidance here - changelog at the top has the motivation for this
hack !

Thx,
-Vineet
