watchdog: fix barriers when printing backtraces from all CPUs

[ Upstream commit 9f113bf760ca90d709f8f89a733d10abb1f04a83 ]

Any parallel softlockup reports are skipped when one CPU is already
printing backtraces from all CPUs.

The exclusive rights are synchronized using one bit in
soft_lockup_nmi_warn.  There is also one memory barrier that does not make
much sense.

Use two barriers on the right location to prevent mixing two reports.
