Remove the now unused RWSEM_OWNER_UNKNOWN hack. This hack breaks PREEMPT_RT and getting rid of it was the entire motivation for re-writing the percpu rwsem. The biggest problem is that it is fundamentally incompatible with any form of Priority Inheritance, any exclusively held lock must have a distinct owner.
