nfs: avoid i_lock contention in nfs_clear_invalid_mapping

Browse Source 
Multi-threaded buffered reads to the same file exposed significant
inode spinlock contention in nfs_clear_invalid_mapping().

Eliminate this spinlock contention by checking flags without locking,
instead using smp_rmb and smp_load_acquire accordingly, but then take
spinlock and double-check these inode flags.

Also refactor nfs_set_cache_invalid() slightly to use
smp_store_release() to pair with nfs_clear_invalid_mapping()'s
smp_load_acquire().

While this fix is beneficial for all multi-threaded buffered reads
issued by an NFS client, this issue was identified in the context of
surprisingly low LOCALIO performance with 4K multi-threaded buffered
read IO.  This fix dramatically speeds up LOCALIO performance:

before: read: IOPS=1583k, BW=6182MiB/s (6482MB/s)(121GiB/20002msec)
after:  read: IOPS=3046k, BW=11.6GiB/s (12.5GB/s)(232GiB/20001msec)
