ARCv2: guard SLC DMA ops with spinlock
SLC maintenance ops need to be serialized by software as there is no
inherent buffering / quequing of aux commands. It can silently ignore a
new aux operation if previous one is still ongoing (SLC_CTRL_BUSY)
So gaurd the SLC op using a spin lock
The spin lock doesn't seem to be contended even in heavy workloads such
as iperf. On FPGA @ 75 MHz.
