Commit 312364f3534cc ("kernel.h: Add non_block_start/end()") added
non_block_star()/end(). The intention was to catch any callbacks which
depend on locks or sleep able conditionals in order to ensure forward
progress. According to the commit message spinlocks were excluded
"because spinlocks can't have an indirect dependency upon the page
allocator…".
On PREEMPT_RT this leads to a splat because spinlock_t and rwlock_t are
turned into a sleeping spinlock which have a might_sleep() as they could
schedule() on lock contention.

Besids mm, the other used of non_block_start() is pwm. Here the hrtimer
can acnqure a spinlock_t on RT and I can't tell other user but I assume
it is not atomic on RT since it wouldn't be able to acquire its own
(spinlock_t) lock.

Since spinlock_t (and rwlock_t) are not problem, add a sleeping_lock
argument to __might_resched() signaling if this is scheduling request
is from a sleeping lock (true) or regular scheduling request (false).
Add the `true' argument to rtlock_might_resched() which is used on
PREEMPT_RT for both sleeping lock types.
