powerpc: Fix smp_mb__before_spinlock()
Currently, smp_mb__before_spinlock() is defined to be smp_wmb() in core code, but this is not sufficient on PowerPC. This patch therefore supplies an override for the generic definition to strengthen smp_mb__before_spinlock() to smp_mb(), as is needed on PowerPC. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: <linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org>
