[S390] do local_irq_restore while spinning in spin_lock_irqsave.
In s390's spin_lock_irqsave, interrupts remain disabled while spinning. In other architectures like x86 and powerpc, interrupts are re-enabled while spinning if IRQ is not masked before spin_lock_irqsave is called. The following patch re-enables interrupts through local_irq_restore while spinning for a lock acquisition. This can improve system response.
