[RFC v2 03/13] rust: sync: atomic: Add ordering annotation types

[Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com>]

Preparation for atomic primitives. Instead of a suffix like _acquire, a
method parameter along with the corresponding generic parameter will be
used to specify the ordering of an atomic operations. For example,
atomic load() can be defined as:

	impl<T: ...> Atomic<T> {
	    pub fn load<O: AcquireOrRelaxed>(&self, _o: O) -> T { ... }
	}

and acquire users would do:

	let r = x.load(Acquire);

relaxed users:

	let r = x.load(Relaxed);

doing the following:

	let r = x.load(Release);

will cause a compiler error.

Compared to suffixes, it's easier to tell what ordering variants an
operation has, and it also make it easier to unify the implementation of
all ordering variants in one method via generic. The `IS_RELAXED` and
`ORDER` associate consts are for generic function to pick up the
particular implementation specified by an ordering annotation.

+//! Memory orderings.
+//!
+//! The semantics of these orderings follows the [`LKMM`] definitions and rules.
+//!
+//! - [`Acquire`] and [`Release`] are similar to their counterpart in Rust memory model.
+//! - [`Full`] means "fully-ordered", that is:
+//!   - It provides ordering between all the preceding memory accesses and the annotated operation.
+//!   - It provides ordering between the annotated operation and all the following memory accesses.
+//!   - It provides ordering between all the preceding memory accesses and all the fllowing memory
+//!     accesses.
+//!   - All the orderings are the same strong as a full memory barrier (i.e. `smp_mb()`).
+//! - [`Relaxed`] is similar to the counterpart in Rust memory model, except that dependency
+//!   orderings are also honored in [`LKMM`]. Dependency orderings are described in "DEPENDENCY
+//!   RELATIONS" in [`LKMM`]'s [`explanation`].
