[PATCH] erofs: initialized fields can only be observed after bit is set

From: Gao Xiang <hsiangkao at redhat.com>

Currently, although set_bit() & test_bit() pairs are used as a fast-
path for initialized configurations. However, these atomic ops are
actually relaxed forms. Instead, load-acquire & store-release form is
needed to make sure uninitialized fields won't be observed in advance
here (yet no such corresponding bitops so use full barriers instead.)

Fixes: 62dc45979f3f ("staging: erofs: fix race of initializing xattrs of a inode at the same time")
Fixes: 152a333a5895 ("staging: erofs: add compacted compression indexes support")
