[PATCH 4/5] timers: remove memory barriers

[Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>]

del_timer() and __run_timers() use smp_wmb() before
clearing timer's pending flag. It was needed because
__mod_timer() did not locked old_base if the timer is
not pending, so __mod_timer()->internal_add_timer()
can race with del_timer()->list_del().

With the previous patch these functions are serialized
through base->lock, so the barrier can be killed.

Still needed in del_timer_sync(), because it clears ->_base.
