Because osq has only been used for mutex/rwsem spinning logic,
we have gotten away with being rather flexible in any of the
traditional lock/unlock ACQUIRE/RELEASE minimal guarantees.
However, if wanted to be used as a _real_ lock, then it would
be in trouble. To this end, this patch provides the two
alternatives, where osq_lock/unlock() calls have the required
semantics, and a _relaxed() call, for no ordering guarantees
at all.
- node->locked is now completely without ordering for _relaxed()
(currently its under smp_load_acquire, which does not match and
the race is harmless to begin with as we just iterate again. For
the ACQUIRE flavor, it is always formed with ctr dep + smp_rmb().
- In order to avoid more code duplication via macros, the common
osq_wait_next() call is completely unordered, but the caller
can provide the necessary barriers, if required - ie the case for
osq_unlock(): similar to the node->locked case, this also relies
on ctrl dep + smp_wmb() to form RELEASE.
- If osq_lock() fails we never guarantee any ordering (obviously
same goes for _relaxed).
Both mutexes and rwsems have been updated to continue using the
relaxed versions, but this will obviously change for the later.
