Subject: [PATCH 2/4] arch,barrier: Use smp barriers in smp_store_release()

With b92b8b35a2e (locking/arch: Rename set_mb() to smp_store_mb())
it was made clear that the context of this call (and thus set_mb)
is strictly for CPU ordering, as opposed to IO. As such all archs
should use the smp variant of mb(), respecting the semantics and
saving a mandatory barrier on UP.
