blk-mq: Fix a race between bt_clear_tag() and bt_get()

What we need is the following two guarantees:
* Any thread that observes the effect of the test_and_set_bit() by
  __bt_get_word() also observes the preceding addition of 'current'
  to the appropriate wait list. This is guaranteed by the semantics
  of the spin_unlock() operation performed by prepare_and_wait().
  Hence the conversion of test_and_set_bit_lock() into
  test_and_set_bit().
* The wait lists are examined by bt_clear() after the tag bit has
  been cleared. clear_bit_unlock() guarantees that any thread that
  observes that the bit has been cleared also observes the store
  operations preceding clear_bit_unlock(). However,
  clear_bit_unlock() does not prevent that the wait lists are examined
  before that the tag bit is cleared. Hence the addition of a memory
  barrier between clear_bit() and the wait list examination.
