locking/rwsem: Drop explicit memory barriers

sh and xtensa seem to be the only architectures which use explicit
memory barriers for rw_semaphore operations even though they are not
really needed because there is the full memory barrier is always implied
by atomic_{inc,dec,add,sub}_return() resp. cmpxchg(). Remove them.
