/*
* Memory barrier.
* The sync instruction guarantees that all memory accesses initiated
* by this processor have been performed (with respect to all other
* mechanisms that access memory). The eieio instruction is a barrier
* providing an ordering (separately) for (a) cacheable stores and (b)
* loads and stores to non-cacheable memory (e.g. I/O devices).
*
* mb() prevents loads and stores being reordered across this point.
* rmb() prevents loads being reordered across this point.
* wmb() prevents stores being reordered across this point.
*
* *mb() variants without smp_ prefix must order all types of memory
* operations with one another. sync is the only instruction sufficient
* to do this.
