locking/rwsem: Make rwsem->owner an atomic_long_t

The rwsem->owner contains not just the task structure pointer, it also
holds some flags for storing the current state of the rwsem. Some of
the flags may have to be atomically updated. To reflect the new reality,
the owner is now changed to an atomic_long_t type.

New helper functions are added to properly separate out the task
structure pointer and the embedded flags.
