atomic: Implement atomic_read_ctrl()

Provide atomic_read_ctrl() to mirror READ_ONCE_CTRL(), such that we can
more conveniently use atomics in control dependencies.

Since we can assume atomic_read() implies a READ_ONCE(), we must only
emit an extra smp_read_barrier_depends() in order to upgrade to
READ_ONCE_CTRL() semantics.
