gpu: nvgpu: Fix some barrier usage
Commit 81868a187fa3b217368206f17b19309846e8e7fb updated barrier usage to use the nvgpu wrappers and in doing so downgraded many plain barriers {mb(), wmb(), rmb()} to the SMP versions of these barriers. The SMP version of the barriers in question are only issued when running on an SMP machine. In most of the cases mentioned above this is fine since the barriers are present to faciliate proper ordering across CPUs. A single CPU is always coherent with itself, so on a non-SMP case we don't need those barriers. However, there are a few places where the barriers in use (GMMU page table programming, IO accessors, userd) where the barrier usage is for communicating and establishing ordering for the GPU. We need these barriers for both SMP machines and non-SMP machines. Therefor we must use the plain barrier versions.
