Andrea Parri a2977c0ca3 membarrier: riscv: Add full memory barrier in switch_mm() ...

commit d6cfd1770f upstream.

The membarrier system call requires a full memory barrier after storing
to rq->curr, before going back to user-space.  The barrier is only
needed when switching between processes: the barrier is implied by
mmdrop() when switching from kernel to userspace, and it's not needed
when switching from userspace to kernel.

Rely on the feature/mechanism ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_CALLBACKS and on the
primitive membarrier_arch_switch_mm(), already adopted by the PowerPC
architecture, to insert the required barrier.
