riscv/atomic: Fix sign extension for RV64I 
The argument passed to cmpxchg is not guaranteed to be sign
extended, but lr.w sign extends on RV64I. This makes cmpxchg
fail on clang built kernels when __old is negative.

To fix this, we just cast __old to long which sign extends on
RV64I. With this fix, clang built RISC-V kernels now boot.

riscv/atomic: Strengthen implementations with fences 
Atomics present the same issue with locking: release and acquire
variants need to be strengthened to meet the constraints defined
by the Linux-kernel memory consistency model [1].

Atomics present a further issue: implementations of atomics such
as atomic_cmpxchg() and atomic_add_unless() rely on LR/SC pairs,
which do not give full-ordering with .aqrl; for example, current
implementations allow the "lr-sc-aqrl-pair-vs-full-barrier" test
below to end up with the state indicated in the "exists" clause.

In order to "synchronize" LKMM and RISC-V's implementation, this
commit strengthens the implementations of the atomics operations
by replacing .rl and .aq with the use of ("lightweigth") fences,
and by replacing .aqrl LR/SC pairs in sequences such as:

  0:      lr.w.aqrl  %0, %addr
          bne        %0, %old, 1f
          ...
          sc.w.aqrl  %1, %new, %addr
          bnez       %1, 0b
  1:

with sequences of the form:

  0:      lr.w       %0, %addr
          bne        %0, %old, 1f
          ...
          sc.w.rl    %1, %new, %addr   /* SC-release   */
          bnez       %1, 0b
          fence      rw, rw            /* "full" fence */
  1:

following Daniel's suggestion.

These modifications were validated with simulation of the RISC-V
memory consistency model.

fab957c11e RISC-V: Atomic and Locking Code 
This contains all the code that directly interfaces with the RISC-V
memory model.  While this code corforms to the current RISC-V ISA
specifications (user 2.2 and priv 1.10), the memory model is somewhat
underspecified in those documents.  There is a working group that hopes
to produce a formal memory model by the end of the year, but my
understanding is that the basic definitions we're relying on here won't
change significantly.
