Guo Ren 45e15c1a37 csky: Add qspinlock support ...

Enable qspinlock by the requirements mentioned in a8ad07e524
("asm-generic: qspinlock: Indicate the use of mixed-size atomics").

C-SKY only has "ldex/stex" for all atomic operations. So csky give a
strong forward guarantee for "ldex/stex." That means when ldex grabbed
the cache line into $L1, it would block other cores from snooping the
address with several cycles. The atomic_fetch_add & xchg16 has the same
forward guarantee level in C-SKY.

Qspinlock has better code size and performance in a fast path.
