[Devel] [PATCH RH9] sched/ve: calc_load_ve -- use raw spinlock

The @load_ve_lock spinlock guards manipulations of @ve_root_list,
same time the calc_load_ve() is executed from irq context which
triggers "invalid context wait" bug

Note that the problem is rather coming from rt camp where splinlocks
become sleepable thus can't be used in irq context (and for our kernel
it requires the CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING to be set), thus since
we know that we're operating in irq context lets use raw spinlocks
instead.

Also I make unlock to happen earlier because there is no need to
keep it once we've finished traversing the @ve_root_list list.
