llist: fix/simplify llist_add() and llist_add_batch()
1. This is mostly theoretical, but llist_add*() need ACCESS_ONCE().
Otherwise it is not guaranteed that the first cmpxchg() uses the
same value for old_entry and new_last->next.
2. These helpers cache the result of cmpxchg() and read the initial
value of head->first before the main loop. I do not think this
makes sense. In the likely case cmpxchg() succeeds, otherwise
it doesn't hurt to reload head->first.
I think it would be better to simplify the code and simply read
->first before cmpxchg().
