overlayfs, locking: Remove smp_mb__before_spinlock() usage
While we could replace the smp_mb__before_spinlock() with the new
smp_mb__after_spinlock(), the normal pattern is to use
smp_store_release() to publish an object that is used for
lockless_dereference() -- and mirrors the regular rcu_assign_pointer()
/ rcu_dereference() patterns.
