Subject: pstore: Use dynamic spinlock initializer

From: Kees Cook <[email protected]>

commit e9a330c4289f2ba1ca4bf98c2b430ab165a8931b upstream.

The per-prz spinlock should be using the dynamic initializer so that lockdep can correctly track it. Without this, under lockdep, we get a warning at boot that the lock is in non-static memory.
