drivers/hwspinlock: fix race between radix tree insertion and lookup
of_hwspin_lock_get_id() is protected by the RCU lock, which means that insertions can occur simultaneously with the lookup. If the radix tree transitions from a height of 0, we can see a slot with the indirect_ptr bit set, which will cause us to at least read random memory, and could cause other havoc. Fix this by using the newly introduced radix_tree_iter_retry().
