rcu: make memory barriers more explicit
Prepare for introducing smp_mb_placeholder() and smp_mb_global(). The new smp_mb() in synchronize_rcu() is not strictly necessary, since the first atomic_mb_set for rcu_gp_ctr provides the required ordering. However, synchronize_rcu is not performance critical, and it *will* be necessary to introduce a smp_mb_global before calling wait_for_readers(). Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
