    <linux/spinlock.h> has heavy dependencies on other header files.
    It triggers circular dependencies in generated headers on IA64, at
    least:

    compilation terminated.
    
    Let's replace <linux/spinlock.h> with <linux/spinlock_types.h>, it's
    enough to find out size of spinlock_t.
