[RFC PATCH 1/4] ARM: b.L: Remove C declarations for vlocks

[Dave Martin]

Vlocks are only useful in very specialised situations, so the
precence of a C header file is more confusing than helpful.  All
current use of vlocks, including allocation of space for the lock
structures themselves, is done in assembler.

This patch removes the C interface, so that people are not tempted
to use vlocks when they shouldn't.
