lib: sbi_init: Avoid thundering hurd problem with coldboot_lock

We can have thundering hurd problem with coldboot_lock where the
boot HART can potentially starve trying to acquire coldboot_lock
because some of the non-boot HARTs are continuously acquiring and
releasing coldboot_lock. This can happen if MIP.MSIP bit is already
set for some of the non-boot HARTs.

To avoid thundering hurd problem for coldboot_lock, we use the
__smp_load_acquire() and __smp_store_release() for coldboot_done
flag and use coldboot_lock only for coldboot_wait_hmask.
