pinctrl: qcom: Use raw spinlock variants



The MSM pinctrl driver currently implements an irq_chip for handling
GPIO interrupts; due to how irq_chip handling is done, it's necessary
for the irq_chip methods to be invoked from hardirq context, even on a
a real-time kernel.  Because the spinlock_t type becomes a "sleeping"
spinlock w/ RT kernels, it is not suitable to be used with irq_chips.

A quick audit of the operations under the lock reveal that they do only
minimal, bounded work, and are therefore safe to do under a raw
spinlock.

On real-time kernels, this fixes an OOPs which looks like the following,
as reported by Brian Wrenn:
