#1443679 — [PATCH 0/2] locking/percpu-rwsem: Optimizations/tweaks

As reported by John and Dmitry, Android tickles bad behaviour in
cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem.

These two patches attempt to address the issue by optimizing the percpu-rwsem
slow path and second add a bias knob to the percpu-rwsem that allows disabling
the fast path which improves writer latency by getting rid of a
synchronize_sched() call.
