CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP doesn't do much useful without
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y. Perhaps we could improve the Kconfig situation
there.

The most fine Documentation/SubmitChecklist instructeth:

12: Has been tested with CONFIG_PREEMPT, CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT,
CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES,
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP all simultaneously
enabled.

(which might need updating for new goodies - it was written a while ago).
