MIPS: New macro smp_mb__before_llsc.
Replace some instances of smp_llsc_mb() with a new macro
smp_mb__before_llsc(). It is used before ll/sc sequences that are
documented as needing write barrier semantics.
The default implementation of smp_mb__before_llsc() is just smp_llsc_mb(),
so there are no changes in semantics.
Also simplify definition of smp_mb(), smp_rmb(), and smp_wmb() to be just
barrier() in the non-SMP case.
