riscv/spinlock: Strengthen implementations with fences

Current implementations map locking operations using .rl and .aq
annotations.  However, this mapping is unsound w.r.t. the kernel
memory consistency model (LKMM) [1]:

Referring to the "unlock-lock-read-ordering" test reported below,
Daniel wrote:

  "I think an RCpc interpretation of .aq and .rl would in fact
   allow the two normal loads in P1 to be reordered [...]

   The intuition would be that the amoswap.w.aq can forward from
   the amoswap.w.rl while that's still in the store buffer, and
   then the lw x3,0(x4) can also perform while the amoswap.w.rl
   is still in the store buffer, all before the l1 x1,0(x2)
   executes.  That's not forbidden unless the amoswaps are RCsc,
   unless I'm missing something.

   Likewise even if the unlock()/lock() is between two stores.
   A control dependency might originate from the load part of
   the amoswap.w.aq, but there still would have to be something
   to ensure that this load part in fact performs after the store
   part of the amoswap.w.rl performs globally, and that's not
   automatic under RCpc."

Simulation of the RISC-V memory consistency model confirmed this
expectation.

In order to "synchronize" LKMM and RISC-V's implementation, this
commit strengthens the implementations of the locking operations
by replacing .rl and .aq with the use of ("lightweigth") fences,
resp., "fence rw,  w" and "fence r , rw".

C unlock-lock-read-ordering

{}
/* s initially owned by P1 */

P0(int *x, int *y)
{
        WRITE_ONCE(*x, 1);
        smp_wmb();
        WRITE_ONCE(*y, 1);
}

P1(int *x, int *y, spinlock_t *s)
{
        int r0;
        int r1;

        r0 = READ_ONCE(*y);
        spin_unlock(s);
        spin_lock(s);
        r1 = READ_ONCE(*x);
}

exists (1:r0=1 /\ 1:r1=0)
