riscv, bpf: make some atomic operations fully ordered
The BPF atomic operations with the BPF_FETCH modifier along with
BPF_XCHG and BPF_CMPXCHG are fully ordered but the RISC-V JIT implements
all atomic operations except BPF_CMPXCHG with relaxed ordering.
Section 8.1 of the "The RISC-V Instruction Set Manual Volume I:
Unprivileged ISA" [1], titled, "Specifying Ordering of Atomic
Instructions" says:
| To provide more efficient support for release consistency [5], each
| atomic instruction has two bits, aq and rl, used to specify additional
| memory ordering constraints as viewed by other RISC-V harts.
and
| If only the aq bit is set, the atomic memory operation is treated as
| an acquire access.
| If only the rl bit is set, the atomic memory operation is treated as a
| release access.
|
| If both the aq and rl bits are set, the atomic memory operation is
| sequentially consistent.
Fix this by setting both aq and rl bits as 1 for operations with
BPF_FETCH and BPF_XCHG.
