locking/percpu-rwsem: Use this_cpu_{inc,dec}() for read_count
The __this_cpu*() accessors are (in general) IRQ-unsafe which, given that percpu-rwsem is a blocking primitive, should be just fine. However, file_end_write() is used from IRQ context and will cause load-store issues on architectures where the per-cpu accessors are not natively irq-safe. Fix it by using the IRQ-safe this_cpu_*() for operations on read_count. This will generate more expensive code on a number of platforms, which might cause a performance regression for some of the other percpu-rwsem users. If any such is reported, we can consider alternative solutions.
