As we want to remove spin_unlock_wait() and replace it with explicit
spin_lock()/spin_unlock() calls, we can use this to simplify the
locking.
In addition:
- Reading nf_conntrack_locks_all needs ACQUIRE memory ordering.
- The new code avoids the backwards loop.
Only slightly tested, I did not manage to trigger calls to
nf_conntrack_all_lock().
V2: With improved comments, to clearly show how the barriers
pair.
Fixes: b16c29191d ("netfilter: nf_conntrack: use safer way to lock all buckets")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
