Paul E. McKenney 5342e269b2 rcu: Permit rt_mutex_unlock() with irqs disabled
Create a separate lockdep class for the rt_mutex used for RCU priority
boosting and enable use of rt_mutex_lock() with irqs disabled.  This
prevents RCU priority boosting from falling prey to deadlocks when
someone begins an RCU read-side critical section in preemptible state,
but releases it with an irq-disabled lock held.

Unfortunately, the scheduler's runqueue and priority-inheritance locks
still must either completely enclose or be completely enclosed by any
overlapping RCU read-side critical section.

This version removes a redundant local_irq_restore() noted by
Yong Zhang.
