Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Add memory barriers for NOCB leader wakeup
References: bnc#1060662
Patch-mainline: v4.12.3
Git-commit: 6b5fc3a1331810db407c9e0e673dc1837afdc9d0

commit 6b5fc3a1331810db407c9e0e673dc1837afdc9d0 upstream.

Wait/wakeup operations do not guarantee ordering on their own.  Instead,
either locking or memory barriers are required.  This commit therefore
adds memory barriers to wake_nocb_leader() and nocb_leader_wait().
