s390/spinlock: Implement SPINLOCK_LOCKVAL with inline assembly
Implement SPINLOCK_LOCKVAL with an inline assembly, which makes use of the ALTERNATIVE macro, to read spinlock_lockval from lowcore. Provide an alternative instruction with a different offset in case lowcore is relocated. This replaces sequences of two instructions with one instruction.
