[v2] riscv: fix race when vmap stack overflow

  Currently, when detecting vmap stack overflow, riscv firstly switches
to the so called shadow stack, then use this shadow stack to call the
get_overflow_stack() to get the overflow stack. However, there's
a race here if two or more harts use the same shadow stack at the same
time.

To solve this race, we introduce spin_shadow_stack atomic var, which
will be swap between its own address and 0 in atomic way, when the
var is set, it means the shadow_stack is being used; when the var
is cleared, it means the shadow_stack isn't being used.

Fixes: 31da94c25aea ("riscv: add VMAP_STACK overflow detection")

Since v1:
 - use smp_store_release directly
 - use unsigned int instead of atomic_t

Using ".w" is tricky for 64 BIT, I've hesitated. ';)
Let's move to REG_AMOSWAP, or you must make sure the address of
spin_shadow_stack won't be 4GB aligned.

Maybe add a comment integrating Guo's remarks,

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAJF2gTRAEX_jQ_w5H05dyafZzHq+P5j05TJ=C+v+OL__GQam4A@mail.gmail.com/T/#u
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAJF2gTRdtcpccL5W48O8VEXCMvxNAyyrKJzhwNJkc8js+H2iJg@mail.gmail.com/T/#u

It will come in handy to future reviewers (and it would address the
checkpatch.pl's "memory barrier without comment" warning).

Thanks,
  Andrea
