RISC-V: Upgrade smp_mb__after_spinlock() to iorw,iorw

While digging through the recent mmiowb preemption issue it came up that
we aren't actually preventing IO from crossing a scheduling boundary.
While it's a bit ugly to overload smp_mb__after_spinlock() with this
behavior, it's what PowerPC is doing so there's some precedent.

* The AQ/RL pair provides a RCpc critical section, but there's not really any
* way we can take advantage of that here because the ordering is only enforced
* on that one lock. Thus, we're just doing a full fence.
*
* Since we allow writeX to be called from preemptive regions we need at least
* an "o" in the predecessor set to ensure device writes are visible before the
* task is marked as available for scheduling on a new hart. While I don't see
* any concrete reason we need a full IO fence, it seems safer to just upgrade
* this in order to avoid any IO crossing a scheduling boundary. In both
* instances the scheduler pairs this with an mb(), so nothing is necessary on
* the new hart.
