rwlocks: Fix section mismatch
This fixes the following build error for the preempt-rt kernel. make kernel/fork.o CC kernel/fork.o kernel/fork.c:90: error: section of ¡tasklist_lock¢ conflicts with previous declaration make[2]: *** [kernel/fork.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [kernel/fork.o] Error 2 The rt kernel cache aligns the RWLOCK in DEFINE_RWLOCK by default. The non-rt kernels explicitly cache align only the tasklist_lock in kernel/fork.c That can create a build conflict. This fixes the build problem by making the non-rt kernels cache align RWLOCKs by default. The side effect is that the other RWLOCKs are also cache aligned for non-rt. This is a short term solution for rt only. The longer term solution would be to push the cache aligned DEFINE_RWLOCK to mainline. If there are objections, then we could create a DEFINE_RWLOCK_CACHE_ALIGNED or something of that nature. Comments? Objections?
