[PATCH] MXS: Convert mutexes in clock.c to spinlocks

[Marek Vasut]

The mutexes can't be safely used under certain circumstances. I noticed this
issue during some network instability at home:

1) I received information about duplicate ipv6 address
2) I use amba-pl011 driver for console output

Backtrace produced (not 80-per-line aligned):

eth0: IPv6 duplicate address XXXX::YYYY:ZZZZ:WWWW:0 detected!

---[ end trace 32eab6a8dcdca9c0 ]---

So the problem summary:
1) ICMPv6 packet is received
2) Interrupt is produced, packet is actually received
3) Packet processing goes on (in tasklet)
4) Duplicate ipv6 address detected, warning produced
5) printk() called, calls pl011_console_write()
6) pl011_console_write() calls clk_enable()
7) clk_enable() for mxs does a mutex_lock(), which is wrong in this context
