OK, scratch my last patch. I'll submit this arch per arch. Starting
with i386. Each arch does it differently, so a generic lib/Konfig.rwsem
wouldn't work, since each arch has a different dependency.

Quick note:

I originally had: default y if !(RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK || PREEMPT_RT || M386)
But then I realized that RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK was dependent on
(PREEMPT_RT || M386) so I thought it was redundant to keep the three,
since RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK itself satisfies the dependencies.
