For performance reasons we are about to change ISYNC_ON_SMP to sometimes be
lwsync. Now that the macro name doesn't make sense, change it and LWSYNC_ON_SMP
to better explain what the barriers are doing.

This implements an optimised mutex fastpath for powerpc, making use of
acquire and release barrier semantics.  This takes the mutex
lock+unlock benchmark from 203 to 173 cycles on a G5.

from include/asm-powerpc.  This is the result of a

mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm

Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where &lt;asm-powepc/...&gt; was being used explicitly.  Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
