0006 * This litmus test demonstrates how lock acquisitions and releases can
0007 * stand in for smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release(), respectively.
0008 * In other words, when holding a given lock (or indeed after releasing a
0009 * given lock), a CPU is not only guaranteed to see the accesses that other
0010 * CPUs made while previously holding that lock, it is also guaranteed
0011 * to see all prior accesses by those other CPUs.
