sched: correctly place paranioa memory barriers in synchronize_sched_…

…expedited()

The memory barriers must be in the SMP case, not in the !SMP case.
Also add a barrier after the atomic_inc() in order to ensure that
other CPUs see post-synchronize_sched_expedited() actions as following
the expedited grace period.
