Michael Munday ac8dbe7747 cmd/compile, runtime: make atomic loads/stores sequentially consistent on s390x
The z/Architecture does not guarantee that a load following a store
will not be reordered with that store, unless they access the same
address. Therefore if we want to ensure the sequential consistency
of atomic loads and stores we need to perform serialization
operations after atomic stores.

We do not need to serialize in the runtime when using StoreRel[ease]
and LoadAcq[uire]. The z/Architecture already provides sufficient
ordering guarantees for these operations.

name              old time/op  new time/op  delta
AtomicLoad64-16   0.51ns ± 0%  0.51ns ± 0%     ~     (all equal)
AtomicStore64-16  0.51ns ± 0%  0.60ns ± 9%  +16.47%  (p=0.000 n=17+20)
AtomicLoad-16     0.51ns ± 0%  0.51ns ± 0%     ~     (all equal)
AtomicStore-16    0.51ns ± 0%  0.60ns ± 9%  +16.50%  (p=0.000 n=18+20)

Fixes #32428.
