NFS: add barriers when testing for NFS_FSDATA_BLOCKED

dentry->d_fsdata is set to NFS_FSDATA_BLOCKED while unlinking or
renaming-over a file to ensure that no open succeeds while the NFS
operation progressed on the server.

Setting dentry->d_fsdata to NFS_FSDATA_BLOCKED is done under ->d_lock
after checking the refcount is not elevated.  Any attempt to open the
file (through that name) will go through lookp_open() which will take
->d_lock while incrementing the refcount, we can be sure that once the
new value is set, __nfs_lookup_revalidate() *will* see the new value and
will block.

We don't have any locking guarantee that when we set ->d_fsdata to NULL,
the wait_var_event() in __nfs_lookup_revalidate() will notice.
wait/wake primitives do NOT provide barriers to guarantee order.  We
must use smp_load_acquire() in wait_var_event() to ensure we look at an
up-to-date value, and must use smp_store_release() before wake_up_var().

This patch adds those barrier functions and factors out
block_revalidate() and unblock_revalidate() far clarity.

There is also a hypothetical bug in that if memory allocation fails
(which never happens in practice) we might leave ->d_fsdata locked.
This patch adds the missing call to unblock_revalidate().
