This patch removes a couple of memory barriers from atomic bitops that
showed up on profiles of netperf.
A little ugly, we should have a nicer way to do this
generically.

       /* This should be in poll */
-       clear_bit(SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE, &sk->sk_socket->flags);
+       if (test_bit(SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE, &sk->sk_socket->flags))
+               clear_bit(SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE, &sk->sk_socket->flags);

Something like fast_clear_bit() that does the above sequence in a inline
function?

I'm not even sure this 'optimization' is valid on UP.
