arm_pmu_mutex is never held long and we don't want to sleep while the
lock is being held as it's executed in the context of hotplug notifiers.
So it can be converted to a simple spinlock instead.

Without this patch we get the following warning:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:620
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 128, pid: 0, name: swapper/2
no locks held by swapper/2/0.

This patch converts the mutex to spinlock to eliminate the above
warnings. This constraints pmu->reset to be non-blocking call which is
the case with all the ARM PMU backends.

Hi,

Sebastian, as a heads-up, the issue below issue may apply to over
hotplug state machine conversions if a mutex was added.

I haven't been able to come up with a race with hotplug that halted
forward progress, and otherwise this is at least as structurally correct
as the mutex, so FWIW:
