[PATCH tip/core/rcu 05/21] percpu: READ_ONCE() now implies smp_read_barrier_depends()

["Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Because READ_ONCE() now implies smp_read_barrier_depends(), this commit
removes the now-redundant smp_read_barrier_depends() following the
READ_ONCE() in __ref_is_percpu().
