The sparc32 version of arch_write_unlock() is just a plain assignment.
Unfortunately this allows the compiler to schedule side-effects in a
protected region to occur after the HW-level unlock, which is broken.
E.g., the following trivial test case gets miscompiled:
#include <linux/spinlock.h>
rwlock_t lock;
int counter;
void foo(void) { write_lock(&lock); ++counter; write_unlock(&lock); }
Fixed by adding a compiler memory barrier to arch_write_unlock(). The
sparc64 version combines the barrier and assignment into a single asm(),
and implements the operation as a static inline, so that's what I did too.
Compile-tested with sparc32_defconfig + CONFIG_SMP=y.
