According to memory-barriers.txt, cmpxchg and its atomic{,64}_ versions
need to imply a full barrier, however they are now just RELEASE+ACQUIRE,
which is not a full barrier.

So replace PPC_RELEASE_BARRIER and PPC_ACQUIRE_BARRIER with
PPC_ATOMIC_ENTRY_BARRIER and PPC_ATOMIC_EXIT_BARRIER in
__cmpxchg_{u32,u64} respectively to guarantee full-barrier semantics
of atomic{,64}_cmpxchg() and cmpxchg().
