cputlb: read CPUTLBEntry.addr_write atomically
Updates can come from other threads, so readers that do not take tlb_lock must use atomic_read to avoid undefined behaviour (UB). This completes the conversion to tlb_lock. This conversion results on average in no performance loss, as the following experiments (run on an Intel i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz) show. 1. aarch64 bootup+shutdown test: - Before: Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 ../img/aarch64/die.sh' (10 runs): 7487.087786 task-clock (msec) # 0.998 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.12% ) 31,574,905,303 cycles # 4.217 GHz ( +- 0.12% ) 57,097,908,812 instructions # 1.81 insns per cycle ( +- 0.08% ) 10,255,415,367 branches # 1369.747 M/sec ( +- 0.08% ) 173,278,962 branch-misses # 1.69% of all branches ( +- 0.18% ) 7.504481349 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.14% ) - After: Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 ../img/aarch64/die.sh' (10 runs): 7462.441328 task-clock (msec) # 0.998 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.07% ) 31,478,476,520 cycles # 4.218 GHz ( +- 0.07% ) 57,017,330,084 instructions # 1.81 insns per cycle ( +- 0.05% ) 10,251,929,667 branches # 1373.804 M/sec ( +- 0.05% ) 173,023,787 branch-misses # 1.69% of all branches ( +- 0.11% ) 7.474970463 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.07% ) 2.
