sched: Core-wide rq->lock
Introduce the basic infrastructure to have a core wide rq->lock. This relies on the rq->__lock order being in increasing CPU number (inside a core). It is also constrained to SMT8 per lockdep (and SMT256 per preempt_count). Luckily SMT8 is the max supported SMT count for Linux (Mips, Sparc and Power are known to have this).

Interesting if you want the same pre-built kernel should be used for
both Server and Desktop workloads.
