[PATCH] parisc: Use ordered store to release TLB lock

[PATCH] parisc: Use ordered store to release TLB lock

[John David Anglin]

The LDCW barriers in the tlb_lock and tlb_unlock0 macros can be removed.

In tlb_lock, the barrier isn't needed because there are no prior accesses to be concerned about.

In tlb_unlock0, we replace the LDCW barrier with an ordered store.  This ensures that all prior
accesses are performed before the store is performed.
