[PATCH 09/11] net: sched: act_gact: use acquire/release for tcfg_ptype

[Jinjie Ruan <ruanjinjie@huawei.com>]

Replace the smp_wmb()/smp_rmb() barrier pair with
smp_store_release()/smp_load_acquire() on gact->tcfg_ptype.
tcf_gact_init() publishes tcfg_ptype via release after writing
tcfg_pval/tcfg_paction; tcf_gact_act() acquires it before
dispatching to gact_net_rand()/gact_determ(), ensuring the probability
parameters are visible.

No functional change intended.
