locking/qspinlock, x86: Enable x86-64 to use queued spinlocks

This patch makes the necessary changes at the x86 architecture
specific layer to enable the use of queued spinlocks for x86-64. As
x86-32 machines are typically not multi-socket. The benefit of queue
spinlock may not be apparent. So queued spinlocks are not enabled.

Currently, there is some incompatibilities between the para-virtualized
spinlock code (which hard-codes the use of ticket spinlock) and the
queued spinlocks. Therefore, the use of queued spinlocks is disabled
when the para-virtualized spinlock is enabled.

The arch/x86/include/asm/qspinlock.h header file includes some x86
specific optimization which will make the queueds spinlock code
perform better than the generic implementation.
