locking/kconfig: Simplify INLINE_SPIN_UNLOCK usage
Get rid of INLINE_SPIN_UNLOCK entirely replacing it with UNINLINE_SPIN_UNLOCK instead of the reverse meaning. Whoever wants to change the default spinlock inlining behavior and uninline the spinlocks for some weird reason, such as spinlock debugging, paravirt etc. can now all just select UNINLINE_SPIN_UNLOCK Original discussion at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/21/357 Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Raghavendra K T <raghavendra.kt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com> Cc: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120322095502.30866.75756.sendpatchset@codeblue [ tidied up the changelog a bit ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

This option reduces the latency of the kernel by making
all kernel code (that is not executing in a critical section)
