sched/completion: Serialize completion_done() with complete()
Commit de30ec47302c "Remove unnecessary ->wait.lock serialization when reading completion state" was not correct, without lock/unlock the code like stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu() while (!completion_done()) cpu_relax(); can return before complete() finishes its spin_unlock() which writes to this memory. And spin_unlock_wait(). While at it, change try_wait_for_completion() to use READ_ONCE(). Reported-by: Paul E.
