Use smp_mb__before_atomic() & smp_mb__after_atomic() in atomic_sub_if_positive() rather than the equivalent smp_mb__before_llsc() & smp_llsc_mb(). The former are more standard & this preps us for avoiding redundant duplicate barriers on Loongson3 in a later patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
