parisc: Add atomic64_set_release() define to avoid CPU soft lockups

Browse Source 
Stalls are quite frequent with recent kernels. I enabled
CONFIG_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR and I caught the following stall:

watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [cc1:22803]

The code was stuck in this loop in d_alloc_parallel:

    4037d414:   0e 00 10 dc     ldd 0(r16),ret0
    4037d418:   c7 fc 5f ed     bb,< ret0,1f,4037d414 <d_alloc_parallel+0x384>
    4037d41c:   08 00 02 40     nop

This is the inner loop of bit_spin_lock which is called by hlist_bl_unlock in
d_alloc_parallel:

static inline void bit_spin_lock(int bitnum, unsigned long *addr)
{
        /*
         * Assuming the lock is uncontended, this never enters
         * the body of the outer loop. If it is contended, then
         * within the inner loop a non-atomic test is used to
         * busywait with less bus contention for a good time to
         * attempt to acquire the lock bit.
         */
        preempt_disable();
#if defined(CONFIG_SMP) || defined(CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK)
        while (unlikely(test_and_set_bit_lock(bitnum, addr))) {
                preempt_enable();
                do {
                        cpu_relax();
                } while (test_bit(bitnum, addr));
                preempt_disable();
        }
#endif
        __acquire(bitlock);
}

After consideration, I realized that we must be losing bit unlocks.
Then, I noticed that we missed defining atomic64_set_release().
Adding this define fixes the stalls in bit operations.
