s_mb_buddies_generated gets used later in this patch series to determine if the cr 0 and cr 1 optimziations should be performed or not. Currently, s_mb_buddies_generated is protected under a spin_lock. In the allocation path, it is better if we don't depend on the lock and instead read the value atomically. In order to do that, we drop s_bal_lock altogether and we convert the only two protected fields by it s_mb_buddies_generated and s_mb_generation_time to atomic type.
