Will Deacon b519b56e37 locking/qrwlock: Use atomic_cond_read_acquire() when spinning in qrwlock
The qrwlock slowpaths involve spinning when either a prospective reader
is waiting for a concurrent writer to drain, or a prospective writer is
waiting for concurrent readers to drain. In both of these situations,
atomic_cond_read_acquire() can be used to avoid busy-waiting and make use
of any backoff functionality provided by the architecture.

This patch replaces the open-code loops and rspin_until_writer_unlock()
implementation with atomic_cond_read_acquire(). The write mode transition
zero to _QW_WAITING is left alone, since (a) this doesn't need acquire
semantics and (b) should be fast.
