+ * 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.
