powerpc: Rename LWSYNC_ON_SMP to PPC_RELEASE_BARRIER, ISYNC_ON_SMP to PPC_ACQUIRE_BARRIER
For performance reasons we are about to change ISYNC_ON_SMP to sometimes be
lwsync. Now that the macro name doesn't make sense, change it and LWSYNC_ON_SMP
to better explain what the barriers are doing.

powerpc: Optimise mutex
This implements an optimised mutex fastpath for powerpc, making use of
acquire and release barrier semantics. This takes the mutex
lock+unlock benchmark from 203 to 173 cycles on a G5.

powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm
from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a
mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm
Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
