devcgroup: remove spin_lock()

Browse source 
Since we introduced rcu for read side, spin_lock is used only for update.
But we always hold cgroup_lock() when update, so spin_lock() is not need.

Additional cleanup:
1) include linux/rcupdate.h explicitly
2) remove unused variable cur_devcgroup in devcgroup_update_access()

* whitelist locking rules:
* cgroup_lock() cannot be taken under dev_cgroup->lock.
* dev_cgroup->lock can be taken with or without cgroup_lock().
*
* modifications always require cgroup_lock
* modifications to a list which is visible require the
* dev_cgroup->lock *and* cgroup_lock()
* walking the list requires dev_cgroup->lock or cgroup_lock().
*
* reasoning: dev_whitelist_copy() needs to kmalloc, so needs
* a mutex, which the cgroup_lock() is. Since modifying
* a visible list requires both locks, either lock can be
* taken for walking the list.
* hold cgroup_lock() for update/read.
* hold rcu_read_lock() for read.
