ARM: fiq_debugger: lock between tty and console writes

debug_console_write calls debug_uart_flush, which will usually wait
until the serial port fifo empties.  If another thread is continuously
calling fiq_tty_write, the fifo will constantly be refilled and
debug_uart_flush might never return.

Add a spinlock that is locked in debug_console_write and fiq_tty_write
to ensure they can't run at the same time.  This has an extra advantage
of preventing lines from the console and tty from being mixed together.

Also reduce the size returned by fiq_tty_write_room to keep the time
spent with the spinlock held to a reasonable value.

In addition, make sure fiq context can't loop forever by never calling
debug_uart_flush when the console is enabled.

ARM: exynos: add irq_set_affinity function for the combiner

Add an API to allow setting CPU affinity to combined IRQs.
This enables performance measurements via the perf utility.

cpufreq: interactive: use deferrable timer by default

Avoid wakeups only to handle the governor timer when the system is otherwise
idle.

For platforms where the power cost of remaining in idle at higher CPU
speed may outweigh the cost of a governor wakeup from idle to lower the speed,
set parameter cpufreq_interactive.governidle=1.

cpufreq: interactive: kick timer on idle exit past expiry

The deferrable timer list isn't checked on all idle exits, such as when
hi-res timers expire or ISRs schedule workers.  If the idle loop is
exited and it's past time to run the governor load polling timer,
run it immediately.  This ensures we handle load spikes caused by actvity
that does not run the normal timer list.

Rename the field that timestamps the "time_in_idle" value to be more
accurate.
