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.
