The above movement of hlist_bl_unlock() is a problem for RT wrt both
taking and releasing of ->c_list_lock, it becoming an rtmutex in RT and
hlist_bl_unlock() taking a preemption blocking bit spinlock.

Is that scope increase necessary?  If so, looks like ->c_list_lock
could probably become a raw_spinlock_t without anyone noticing.
