[PATCH bpf-next 2/3] tools, perf: use smp_{rmb,mb} barriers instead of {rmb,mb}

Switch both rmb()/mb() barriers to more lightweight smp_rmb()/smp_mb()
ones. When walking the perf ring buffer they pair the following way,
quoting kernel/events/ring_buffer.c:

  Since the mmap() consumer (userspace) can run on a different CPU:

    kernel                               user

    if (LOAD ->data_tail) {              LOAD ->data_head
                          (A)            smp_rmb()       (C)
      STORE $data                        LOAD $data
      smp_wmb()           (B)            smp_mb()        (D)
      STORE ->data_head                  STORE ->data_tail
    }

  Where A pairs with D, and B pairs with C.

  In our case (A) is a control dependency that separates the load
  of the ->data_tail and the stores of $data. In case ->data_tail
  indicates there is no room in the buffer to store $data we do not.

  D needs to be a full barrier since it separates the data READ from
  the tail WRITE.

  For B a WMB is sufficient since it separates two WRITEs, and for C
  an RMB is sufficient since it separates two READs.

Currently, on x86-64, perf uses LFENCE and MFENCE which is overkill
as we can do more lightweight in particular given this is fast-path.

According to Peter rmb()/mb() were added back then via a94d342b9cb0
("tools/perf: Add required memory barriers") at a time where kernel
still supported chips that needed it, but nowadays support for these
has been ditched completely, therefore we can fix them up as well.
