[PATCH 02/11] lib/vsprintf: Use acquire/release for ptr_key publication

[Jinjie Ruan]

Replace the smp_wmb() + WRITE_ONCE() and READ_ONCE() + smp_rmb() barrier
pair with smp_store_release()/smp_load_acquire() on filled_random_ptr_key.

This expresses the publish/subscribe pattern more clearly and allows
architectures with native acquire/release instructions (e.g. arm64's
STLR/LDAR) to avoid the cost of full one-way barriers (DMB ISHST/ISHLD).

No functional change intended.
