tile: use READ_ONCE() in arch_spin_is_locked()

This avoid potential issues if callers were to loop on these
routines without some kind of memory barrier.  Currently there
are no such users in-tree, but it seems better safe than sorry.

Also, in the tilepro case we read "current" before "next",
which gives us a slightly better guarantee that the lock was
actually unlocked at least momentarily if we return claiming
that it is not locked.  None of the callers actually rely on
this behavior, as far as I know, however.
