mm: lock PGDAT_RECLAIM_LOCKED with acquire memory ordering
The PGDAT_RECLAIM_LOCKED bit is used to provide mutual exclusion of node reclaim for struct pglist_data using a single bit. Use test_and_set_bit_lock rather than test_and_set_bit to test-and-set PGDAT_RECLAIM_LOCKED with an acquire memory ordering semantic. This changes the "lock" acquisition from a full barrier to an acquire memory ordering, which is weaker. The acquire semi-permeable barrier paired with the release on unlock is sufficient for this mutual exclusion use-case. No behavior change intended other than to reduce overhead by using the appropriate barrier.
