[PATCH] alpha: Fix SMP shutdown hang due to missing memory barriers

[Matt Turner]

Alpha has a very weak memory model. halt() makes no guarantee that
pending stores have drained from the store buffer. If set_cpu_present()
stores are still buffered when a secondary CPU halts, they are lost,
and the boot CPU spins forever in the cpu_present_mask wait loop.

Add mb() before halt() on secondary CPUs to flush the store buffer,
and use smp_mb() in the boot CPU's poll loop instead of the
compiler-only barrier() to ensure it observes secondary CPUs' stores.

This avoids a deadlock on shutdown on EV7/Marvel platforms.
