Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Add necessary WRITE_ONCE()

Commit c54a2744497d("list: Add hlist_unhashed_lockless()") and
commit 860c8802ace1("rcu: Use WRITE_ONCE() for assignments to
->pprev for hlist_nulls") added various WRITE_ONCE() to pair with
the READ_ONCE() in hlist_unhashed_lockless(), but there are still
some places where WRITE_ONCE() was not added, this commit adds that.

Also add WRITE_ONCE() to pair with the READ_ONCE() in hlist_empty().
