sched: Core-wide rq->lock
Introduce the basic infrastructure to have a core wide rq->lock.
This relies on the rq->__lock order being in increasing CPU number
(inside a core). It is also constrained to SMT8 per lockdep (and
SMT256 per preempt_count).
Luckily SMT8 is the max supported SMT count for Linux (Mips, Sparc and
Power are known to have this).
