Subject[PATCH 2/2] ras: close the race condition with timer
Date
cec_timer_fn() is a timer callback which reads ce_arr.array[]
and updates its decay values. Elements could be added to or
removed from this global array in parallel, although the array
itself will not grow or shrink. del_lru_elem_unlocked() uses
FULL_COUNT() as a key to find a right element to remove,
which could be affected by the parallel timer.

Fix this by converting the mutex to a spinlock and holding it
inside the timer.
