Puranjay Mohan a1bf044583 riscv, bpf: make some atomic operations fully ordered 
[ Upstream commit 20a759df3b ]

The BPF atomic operations with the BPF_FETCH modifier along with
BPF_XCHG and BPF_CMPXCHG are fully ordered but the RISC-V JIT implements
all atomic operations except BPF_CMPXCHG with relaxed ordering.

Section 8.1 of the "The RISC-V Instruction Set Manual Volume I:
Unprivileged ISA" [1], titled, "Specifying Ordering of Atomic
Instructions" says:

| To provide more efficient support for release consistency [5], each
| atomic instruction has two bits, aq and rl, used to specify additional
| memory ordering constraints as viewed by other RISC-V harts.

and

| If only the aq bit is set, the atomic memory operation is treated as
| an acquire access.
| If only the rl bit is set, the atomic memory operation is treated as a
| release access.
|
| If both the aq and rl bits are set, the atomic memory operation is
| sequentially consistent.

Fix this by setting both aq and rl bits as 1 for operations with
BPF_FETCH and BPF_XCHG.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
