4a57d6bbae locking/rwlocks: introduce write_lock_nested
In preparation for converting bit_spin_lock to rwlock in zsmalloc so
that multiple writers of zspages can run at the same time but those
zspages are supposed to be different zspage instance.  Thus, it's not
deadlock.  This patch adds write_lock_nested to support the case for
LOCKDEP.

8282947f67 locking/rwlock: Provide RT variant
Similar to rw_semaphores, on RT the rwlock substitution is not writer fair,
because it's not feasible to have a writer inherit its priority to
multiple readers. Readers blocked on a writer follow the normal rules of
priority inheritance. Like RT spinlocks, RT rwlocks are state preserving
across the slow lock operations (contended case).
