locking/rwsem: Use acquire/release semantics
As of 654672d4ba1 (locking/atomics: Add _{acquire|release|relaxed}() variants of some atomic operations) and 6d79ef2d30e (locking, asm-generic: Add _{relaxed|acquire|release}() variants for 'atomic_long_t'), weakly ordered archs can benefit from more relaxed use of barriers when locking and unlocking, instead of regular full barrier semantics. While currently only arm64 supports such optimizations, updating corresponding locking primitives serves for other archs to immediately benefit as well, once the necessary machinery is implemented of course.
