lib: sbi: Replace test-and-set locks by ticket locks
Replace the test-and-set spinlock implementation with ticket locks in order to get fairness (in form of FIFO order). The implementation uses a 32-bit wide struct, which consists of two 16-bit counters (owner and next). This is inspired by similar spinlock implementations on other architectures. This allows that the code works for both, RV32 and RV64. Signed-off-by: Christoph Muellner <cmuellner@linux.com> Reviewed-by: Anup Patel <anup.patel@wdc.com> Reviewed-by: Xiang W <wxjstz@126.com>
