[PATCH] spinlock: __raw_spin_is_locked() should return true for UP

For some reason __raw_spin_is_locked() has been returning false for the
uni-processor, non-CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK. The UP + CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK
handles this correctly.
Found this by enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_VM on PPC and hitting always hitting
a BUG_ON that was testing to make sure the pte_lock was held.
