call_break_hook is called in atomic context (hard irq disabled), so replace
the sleepable lock to rcu lock, replace relevant list operations to rcu
version and call synchronize_rcu() in unregister_break_hook().

And, replace write lock to spinlock in {un}register_break_hook.

v2 -> v3
Add synchronize_rcu() in ungister_break_hook()
Replace write lock to spinlock

v1 -> v2
Replace list operations to rcu version.
