alpha: marvel: make use of raw_spinlock variants
The alpha/marvel code currently implements an irq_chip for handling interrupts; due to how irq_chip handling is done, it's necessary for the irq_chip methods to be invoked from hardirq context, even on a a real-time kernel. Because the spinlock_t type becomes a "sleeping" spinlock w/ RT kernels, it is not suitable to be used with irq_chips. A quick audit of the operations under the lock reveal that they do only minimal, bounded work, and are therefore safe to do under a raw spinlock.
