The arch_spin_value_unlocked() of ticket-lock would cause the compiler to
generate inefficient asm code in riscv architecture because of
unnecessary memory access to the contended value.

Before the patch:

void lockref_get(struct lockref *lockref)
{
  78:   fd010113                add     sp,sp,-48
  7c:   02813023                sd      s0,32(sp)
  80:   02113423                sd      ra,40(sp)
  84:   03010413                add     s0,sp,48

0000000000000088 <.LBB296>:
CMPXCHG_LOOP(
  88:   00053783                ld      a5,0(a0)

After the patch:

void lockref_get(struct lockref *lockref)
{
CMPXCHG_LOOP(
  78:   00053783                ld      a5,0(a0)

After the patch, the lockref_get() could get in a fast path instead of the
function's prologue. This is because ticket lock complex logic would
limit compiler optimization for the spinlock fast path, and qspinlock
won't.

The caller of arch_spin_value_unlocked() could benefit from this
change. Currently, the only caller is lockref.
