The seqlock write unlock function was incorrectly calling
seqlock_write_begin() instead of seqlock_write_end(), and was releasing
the lock before incrementing the sequence. This could lead to a race
condition and a corrupted sequence number becoming odd even though the
lock is not held.

Tracked down with an ugly, brittle and probably buggy Perl script.
Also move includes converted to <...> up so they get included before
ours where that's obviously okay.

Seqlock implementation for QEMU. Usage idiom
reader:
do {
start = seqlock_read_begin(&sl);
...
} while (seqlock_read_retry(&sl, start));
writer:
seqlock_write_lock(&sl);
...
seqlock_write_unlock(&sl);
initialization:
seqlock_init(QemuSeqLock *sl, QemuMutex *mutex)
mutex could be NULL if the caller will provide its own protection
for concurrent write sides (typically using the BQL).
