Andrea Parri 5b735eb1ce tools/memory-model: Model smp_mb__after_unlock_lock()
The kernel documents smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() the following way:

  "Place this after a lock-acquisition primitive to guarantee that
   an UNLOCK+LOCK pair acts as a full barrier.  This guarantee applies
   if the UNLOCK and LOCK are executed by the same CPU or if the
   UNLOCK and LOCK operate on the same lock variable."

Formalize in LKMM the above guarantee by defining (new) mb-links according
to the law:

  ([M] ; po ; [UL] ; (co | po) ; [LKW] ;
	fencerel(After-unlock-lock) ; [M])

where the component ([UL] ; co ; [LKW]) identifies "UNLOCK+LOCK pairs on
the same lock variable" and the component ([UL] ; po ; [LKW]) identifies
"UNLOCK+LOCK pairs executed by the same CPU".

In particular, the LKMM forbids the following two behaviors (the second
litmus test below is based on:

  Documentation/RCU/Design/Memory-Ordering/Tree-RCU-Memory-Ordering.html

c.f., Section "Tree RCU Grace Period Memory Ordering Building Blocks"):
