[PATCH v2 08/12] ARM: spinlock: use inner-shareable dsb variant prior to sev instruction

[will.deacon@arm.com (Will Deacon)]

When unlocking a spinlock, we use the sev instruction to signal other
CPUs waiting on the lock. Since sev is not a memory access instruction,
we require a dsb in order to ensure that the sev is not issued ahead
of the store placing the lock in an unlocked state.

However, as sev is only concerned with other processors in a
multiprocessor system, we can restrict the scope of the preceding dsb
to the inner-shareable domain. Furthermore, we can restrict the scope to
consider only stores, since there are no independent loads on the unlock
path.

A side-effect of this change is that a spin_unlock operation no longer
forces completion of pending TLB invalidation, something which we rely
on when unlocking runqueues to ensure that CPU migration during TLB
maintenance routines doesn't cause us to continue before the operation
has completed.

This patch adds the -ishst suffix to the ARMv7 definition of dsb_sev()
and adds an inner-shareable dsb to the context-switch path when running
a preemptible, SMP, v7 kernel.
