[S390] spinlock: check virtual cpu running status
This patch introduces a new function that checks the running status
of a cpu in a hypervisor. This status is not virtualized, so the check
is only correct if running in an LPAR. On acquiring a spinlock, if the
cpu holding the lock is scheduled by the hypervisor, we do a busy wait
on the lock. If it is not scheduled, we yield over to that cpu.
