gpu: nvgpu: remove barrier from gm20b_channel_bind

In gm20b_channel_bind an nvgpu_smp_wmb() was used presumably to
prevent MMIO writes from being re-ordered after the memory write
to 'ch->bound'. If that was to happen, then unbind routine could
observe the channel as bound and issue concurrent MMIO writes
to unbind the channel. Assuming, the barrier was to prevent
such race, it should have been an nvgpu_wmb(), since
nvgpu_smp_wmb() is for inner shareable domain only.

However, the race possibility between unbind called from close
path and bind from ALLOC_GPFIFO should be ruled out because
close will wait for any active devctl/ioctl to finish before
proceeding.

The race possibility between unbind called from
suspend_all_serviceable_ch path and bind from ALLOC_GPFIFO should
be ruled out because ALLOC_GPFIFO has power refcount at the start
of devctl/ioctl and suspend_all_serviceable_ch is called from
prepare_poweroff path which ensure that power refcount is 0.

Removed nvgpu_smp_wmb().
