locking/paravirt: Use new static key for controlling call of virt_spi…
…n_lock() There are cases where a guest tries to switch spinlocks to bare metal behavior (e.g. by setting "xen_nopvspin" boot parameter). Today this has the downside of falling back to unfair test and set scheme for qspinlocks due to virt_spin_lock() detecting the virtualized environment. Add a static key controlling whether virt_spin_lock() should be called or not. When running on bare metal set the new key to false.
