[PATCH v2 6/9] qemu-coroutine-lock: add smp_mb__after_rmw()


From: Paolo Bonzini
Subject: [PATCH v2 6/9] qemu-coroutine-lock: add smp_mb__after_rmw()
Date: Mon, 6 Mar 2023 23:33:03 +0100

mutex->from_push and mutex->handoff in qemu-coroutine-lock implement
the familiar pattern:

   write a                                  write b
   smp_mb()                                 smp_mb()
   read b                                   read a

The memory barrier is required by the C memory model even after a
SEQ_CST read-modify-write operation such as QSLIST_INSERT_HEAD_ATOMIC.
Add it and avoid the unclear qatomic_mb_read() operation.
