locking/spinlock, arch: Update and fix spin_unlock_wait() implementations

This patch updates/fixes all spin_unlock_wait() implementations.

The update is in semantics; where it previously was only a control
dependency, we now upgrade to a full load-acquire to match the
store-release from the spin_unlock() we waited on. This ensures that
when spin_unlock_wait() returns, we're guaranteed to observe the full
critical section we waited on.

This fixes a number of spin_unlock_wait() users that (not
unreasonably) rely on this.

I also fixed a number of ticket lock versions to only wait on the
current lock holder, instead of for a full unlock, as this is
sufficient.

Furthermore; again for ticket locks; I added an smp_rmb() in between
the initial ticket load and the spin loop testing the current value
because I could not convince myself the address dependency is
sufficient, esp. if the loads are of different sizes.

I'm more than happy to remove this smp_rmb() again if people are
certain the address dependency does indeed work as expected.

Note: PPC32 will be fixed independently
