This patch modifies the queue_write_unlock() function to use the new smp_store_release() function in another pending patch. It also removes the temporary implementation of smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release() function in qrwlock.c. This patch should only be merged if PeterZ's linux-arch patch patch was merged.
