[PATCH] riscv: Fix sleeping in invalid context in die()

die() can be called in exception handler, and therefore cannot sleep.
However, die() takes spinlock_t which can sleep with PREEMPT_RT enabled.
That causes the following warning:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 285, name: mutex

Oops - illegal instruction [#1]

Switch to use raw_spinlock_t, which does not sleep even with PREEMPT_RT
enabled.

stable backport is probably not needed for versions earlier than 6.12
because PREEMPT_RT is not enabled. But it doesn't hurt..
