Series xen/spinlock: make recursive spinlocks a dedicated type | expand

Allow 16 bits per cpu number, which is the limit imposed by
spinlock_tickets_t.

This will allow up to 65535 cpus, while increasing only the size of
recursive spinlocks in debug builds from 8 to 12 bytes.

The current Xen limit of 4095 cpus is imposed by SPINLOCK_CPU_BITS
being 12. There are machines available with more cpus than the current
Xen limit, so it makes sense to have the possibility to use more cpus.

V5:
- keep previous recursion limit (Julien Grall)
V6:
- use unsigned int instead of uint32_t (Jan Beulich)

... the two additions here: The two checks we had verify independent
properties, whereas the new ones basically check that struct rspinlock
and its associated #define-s were got right. We don't check such
elsewhere, I don't think.

I think we do.

What about:
   BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(hwp_req) != sizeof(hwp_req.raw))
checking that two union elements are of the same size (and both elements don't
contain any other structs).

Additionally it is not obvious at a first glance that SPINLOCK_CPU_BITS defined
in line 11 is relevant for the definition of recurse_cpu in line 217.

Regarding the second added BUILD_BUG_ON() there was a comment by Julien related
to the definition of SPINLOCK_MAX_RECURSE in V4 of this patch. We settled to use
the current form including the added BUILD_BUG_ON().
