Maybe something like this for the changelog?
A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(),
even though there is no need to order prior stores against later
loads. Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these
situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way
to make use of them.
This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() to remedy this situation. The new
smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against
any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release()
primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or
writes. These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be
implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical
hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional
expense on most architectures.
In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference()
and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial
improvements in readability. It therefore seems likely that
replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits. It appears
that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code
might be so replaced.
Some comments below. I believe that opcodes need to be fixed for IA64.
I am unsure of the ifdefs and opcodes for arm64, but the ARM folks should
be able to tell us.
Other than that, for the rest:

Yep, not any alternative to smp_mb() here.

Seems like there should be some sort of #ifdef condition to distinguish
between these. My guess is something like:
#if __LINUX_ARM_ARCH__ > 7
But I must defer to the ARM guys. For all I know, they might prefer
arch/arm to stick with smp_mb() and have arch/arm64 do the ldar and stlr.

Ditto on the instruction format. The closest thing I see in the kernel
is "stlr %w1, %0" in arch_write_unlock() and arch_spin_unlock().

It appears that sizes 2 and 1 are also available, but 4 and 8 seem like
good places to start.

I think that this actually does work, strange though it does look.

I believe that this is OK as well, but must defer to the s390

Use of smp_mb() should be safe here.

The surrounding code looks to be set up for !SMP. I -thought- that there
were SMP 32-bit SPARC systems, but either way, smp_mb() should be safe.

SPARC64 is TSO, so looks good.

The __mb_incoherent() in the surrounding code looks scary, but smp_mb()
should suffice here as well as elsewhere.

The use of smp_mb() should be safe, so good. Looks like xtensa orders
reads, but not writes -- interesting...
