Subject: [PATCH] rt-locks: implement rt_downgrade_write

commit 86ed1c888ff040e26603e48ff56c163df9c2cd59 in tip.

The current code of rt_downgrade_write simply does a BUG(). There
are places in the kernel that uses this code, and will crash a runnning
preempt-rt kernel.

The rt_downgrade_write converts a rwsem held for write into a rwsem
held for read without ever releasing the semaphore. In -rt, the rwsems
are simply a mutex. There is nothing different between a rwsem held
for write, and one held for read. The difference is that one held for
read can nest.

This patch changes the BUG_ON() to simply BUG if the caller is not
the owner of the semaphore.

This patch comes from my rt-git repo, and has been tested there.
