locking/rwsem: Enable lock event counting
Add lock event counting calls so that we can track the number of lock events happening in the rwsem code. With CONFIG_LOCK_EVENT_COUNTS on and booting a 4-socket 112-thread x86-64 system, the rwsem counts after system bootup were as follows: rwsem_opt_fail=261 rwsem_opt_wlock=50636 rwsem_rlock=445 rwsem_rlock_fail=0 rwsem_rlock_fast=22 rwsem_rtrylock=810144 rwsem_sleep_reader=441 rwsem_sleep_writer=310 rwsem_wake_reader=355 rwsem_wake_writer=2335 rwsem_wlock=261 rwsem_wlock_fail=0 rwsem_wtrylock=20583 It can be seen that most of the lock acquisitions in the slowpath were write-locks in the optimistic spinning code path with no sleeping at all. For this system, over 97% of the locks are acquired via optimistic spinning. It illustrates the importance of optimistic spinning in improving the performance of rwsem.
