sched/loadavg: Use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() for sample window 

'calc_load_update' is accessed without any kind of locking and there's
a clear assumption in the code that only a single value is read or
written.

Make this explicit by using READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE(), and avoid
unintentionally seeing multiple values, or having the load/stores
split.

Technically the loads in calc_global_*() don't require this since
those are the only functions that update 'calc_load_update', but I've
added the READ_ONCE() for consistency.
