x86: remove byte locks
Impact: cleanup
Remove byte locks implementation, which was introduced by Jeremy in
8efcbab6 ("paravirt: introduce a "lock-byte" spinlock implementation"),
but turned out to be dead code that is not used by any in-kernel
virtualization guest (Xen uses its own variant of spinlocks implementation
and KVM is not planning to move to byte locks).
