Fix: use __atomic_load() rather than atomic load explicit

Use __atomic_load (gcc extension) rather than atomic load explict
(C11/C++11) for rcu_dereference because it does not require the input
type to be _Atomic. This fixes a regression with clang introduced by
commit 380f4b19052 ("Fix: use atomic load memory_order_consume for
rcu_dereference on C11/C++11").

Note that the cmm_smp_read_barrier_depends is removed when using
__ATOMIC_CONSUME because their memory ordering effect is redundant.
