locking/qrwlock: Fix write unlock bug on big endian systems
This patch aims to get rid of endianness in queued_write_unlock(). We want to set __qrwlock->wmode to NULL, however the address is not &lock->cnts in big endian machine. That causes queued_write_unlock() write NULL to the wrong field of __qrwlock. So implement __qrwlock_write_byte() which returns the correct __qrwlock->wmode address.
