Emilio G. Cota 403f290c06 cputlb: read CPUTLBEntry.addr_write atomically
Updates can come from other threads, so readers that do not
take tlb_lock must use atomic_read to avoid undefined
behaviour (UB).

This completes the conversion to tlb_lock. This conversion results
on average in no performance loss, as the following experiments
(run on an Intel i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz) show.

1. aarch64 bootup+shutdown test:

Notes:
- tlb-lock-v2 corresponds to an implementation with a mutex.
- tlb-lock-v3 corresponds to the current implementation, i.e.
  a spinlock and a single lock acquisition in tlb_set_page_with_attrs.
