Locking of config and doorbell operations should be done only if the underlying hardware requires it. This patch removes the global spinlocks from the rapidio subsystem and moves them to the mport drivers (fsl_rio and tsi721), only to the necessary places. For example, local config space read and write operations (lcread/lcwrite) are atomic in all existing drivers, so there should be no need for locking, while the cread/cwrite operations which generate maintenance transactions need to be synchronized with a lock. Later, each driver could chose to use a per-port lock instead of a global one, or even more granular locking.
