membarrier: riscv: Add full memory barrier in switch_mm()
The membarrier system call requires a full memory barrier after storing to rq->curr, before going back to user-space. The barrier is only needed when switching between processes: the barrier is implied by mmdrop() when switching from kernel to userspace, and it's not needed when switching from userspace to kernel. Rely on the feature/mechanism ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_CALLBACKS and on the primitive membarrier_arch_switch_mm(), already adopted by the PowerPC architecture, to insert the required barrier.
