Some drivers might access regmap in a context where a raw spinlock is held. An example is drivers/irqchip/irq-ls-extirq.c, which calls regmap_update_bits() from struct irq_chip :: irq_set_type, which is a method called by __irq_set_trigger() under the desc->lock raw spin lock. Since desc->lock is a raw spin lock and the regmap internal lock for mmio is a plain spinlock (which can become sleepable on RT), this is an invalid locking scheme and we get a splat stating that this is a "[ BUG: Invalid wait context ]". It seems reasonable for regmap to have an option use a raw spinlock too, so add that in the config such that drivers can request it.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
