locking/qrwlock: Fix write unlock bug on big endian systems

This patch aims to get rid of endianness in queued_write_unlock(). We
want to set  __qrwlock->wmode to NULL, however the address is not
&lock->cnts in big endian machine. That causes queued_write_unlock()
write NULL to the wrong field of __qrwlock.

So implement __qrwlock_write_byte() which returns the correct
__qrwlock->wmode address.
