* Changed the rw_lock_{read,write}_unlock() return values to void. They
returned a value != B_OK only in case of user error and no-one checked them
anyway.
* Optimized rw_lock_read_[un]lock(). They are inline now and as long as
there's no contending write locker, they will only perform an atomic_add().
* Changed the semantics of nested locking after acquiring a write lock: Read
and write locks are counted separately, so read locks no longer implicitly
become write locks. This does e.g. make degrading a write lock to a read
lock by way of read_lock + write_unlock (as used in the VM) actually work.
These changes speed up the -j8 Haiku image build on my machine by a few
percent, but more interestingly they reduce the total kernel time by 25 %.
Apparently we get more contention on other locks, now.
