Locklessly doing is_idle_task(rq->curr) is only okay because of
RCU protection. The older variant of the broken code checked
rq->curr == rq->idle instead and therefore didn't need RCU.
Fixes: f6be8af1c95d ("sched: Add new API wake_up_if_idle() to wake up the idle cpu")

arch_spin_unlock_wait() looks very suboptimal, to the point I
think this is just wrong and can lead to livelock: if the lock
is heavily contended we can never see head == tail.
But we do not need to wait for arch_spin_is_locked() == F. If it
is locked we only need to wait until the current owner drops
this lock. So we could simply spin until old_head !=
lock->tickets.head in this case, but .head can overflow and thus
we can't check "unlocked" only once before the main loop.
Also, the "unlocked" check can ignore TICKET_SLOWPATH_FLAG bit.

Add helper function to write u32 to registers, if we want to put u32
value to 4 continuous register, this can help us reduce tedious work.
