mm/kmemleak: turn kmemleak_lock and object->lock to raw_spinlock_t

kmemleak_lock as a rwlock on RT can possibly be acquired in atomic
context which does work.

Since the kmemleak operation is performed in atomic context make it a
raw_spinlock_t so it can also be acquired on RT.  This is used for
debugging and is not enabled by default in a production like environment
(where performance/latency matters) so it makes sense to make it a
raw_spinlock_t instead trying to get rid of the atomic context.  Turn
also the kmemleak_object->lock into raw_spinlock_t which is acquired
(nested) while the kmemleak_lock is held.

The time spent in "echo scan > kmemleak" slightly improved on 64core box
with this patch applied after boot.

[[email protected]: redo the description, update comments. Merge the individual bits:  He Zhe did the kmemleak_lock, Liu Haitao the ->lock and Yongxin Liu forwarded Liu's patch.]
