/*
 * 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.
 * read_barrier_depends() prevents data-dependent loads being reordered
 *	across this point (nop on PPC).
 *
 * *mb() variants without smp_ prefix must order all types of memory
 * operations with one another. sync is the only instruction sufficient
 * to do this.
 *
 * For the smp_ barriers, ordering is for cacheable memory operations
 * only. We have to use the sync instruction for smp_mb(), since lwsync
 * doesn't order loads with respect to previous stores.  Lwsync can be
 * used for smp_rmb() and smp_wmb().
 *
 * However, on CPUs that don't support lwsync, lwsync actually maps to a
 * heavy-weight sync, so smp_wmb() can be a lighter-weight eieio.
