blktrace: switch trace spinlock to a raw spinlock
The running_trace_lock protects running_trace_list and is acquired within the tracepoint which implies disabled preemption. The spinlock_t typed lock can not be acquired with disabled preemption on PREEMPT_RT because it becomes a sleeping lock. The runtime of the tracepoint depends on the number of entries in running_trace_list and has no limit. The blk-tracer is considered debug code and higher latencies here are okay. Make running_trace_lock a raw_spinlock_t.
