seqcount: Add raw_write_seqcount_latch()
For NMI safe access to clock monotonic we use the seqcount LSB as index of a timekeeper array. The update sequence looks like this: smp_wmb(); <- prior stores to a[1] seq++; smp_wmb(); <- seq increment before update of a[0] update(a[0]); smp_wmb(); <- update of a[0] seq++; smp_wmb(); <- seq increment before update of a[1] update(a[1]); To avoid open coded barriers, provide a helper function.
