locking,qspinlock: Fix spin_is_locked() and spin_unlock_wait()
Similar to commits:
51d7d5205d33 ("powerpc: Add smp_mb() to arch_spin_is_locked()")
d86b8da04dfa ("arm64: spinlock: serialise spin_unlock_wait against concurrent lockers")
qspinlock suffers from the fact that the _Q_LOCKED_VAL store is
unordered inside the ACQUIRE of the lock.
And while this is not a problem for the regular mutual exclusive
critical section usage of spinlocks, it breaks creative locking like:
spin_lock(A) spin_lock(B)
spin_unlock_wait(B) if (!spin_is_locked(A))
do_something() do_something()
In that both CPUs can end up running do_something at the same time,
because our _Q_LOCKED_VAL store can drop past the spin_unlock_wait()
spin_is_locked() loads (even on x86!!).
To avoid making the normal case slower, add smp_mb()s to the less used
spin_unlock_wait() / spin_is_locked() side of things to avoid this
problem.
