[PATCH V2 1/5] asm-generic: ticket-lock: New generic ticket-based spinlock

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz at infradead.org>

This is a simple, fair spinlock.  Specifically it doesn't have all the
subtle memory model dependencies that qspinlock has, which makes it more
suitable for simple systems as it is more likely to be correct.

I have specifically not included Peter's SOB on this, as he sent his
original patch
<https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/YHbBBuVFNnI4kjj3@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net/>
without one.
