ARM: domains: add memory dependencies to get_domain/set_domain



We need to have memory dependencies on get_domain/set_domain to avoid
the compiler over-optimising these inline assembly instructions.

Loads/stores must not be reordered across a set_domain(), so introduce
a compiler barrier for that assembly.

The value of get_domain() must not be cached across a set_domain(), but
we still want to allow the compiler to optimise it away.  Introduce a
dependency on current_thread_info()->cpu_domain to avoid this; the new
memory clobber in set_domain() should therefore cause the compiler to
re-load this.  The other advantage of using this is we should have its
address in the register set already, or very soon after at most call
sites.
