locking/qspinlock: Use smp_cond_load_relaxed() to wait for next node When a locker reaches the head of the queue and takes the lock, a concurrent locker may enqueue and force the lock holder to spin whilst its node->next field is initialised. Rather than open-code a READ_ONCE/cpu_relax() loop, this can be implemented using smp_cond_load_relaxed() instead.
