rGc24d1d070475: linuxkpi: Define `raw_spinlock_t` in <linux/spinlock.h>
rGac341353a043: linuxkpi: Define `raw_spinlock_t` in <linux/spinlock.h>

Summary

For now, it is synonymous to spinlock_t. The DRM generic code uses the struct raw_spinlock and not raw_spinlock_t, that's why the definition is a struct embedding a struct mtx, compared to spinlock_t which is a simpler typedef.

The DRM generic code started to use it in Linux 6.10.

This is part of the update of DRM drivers to Linux 6.10.
