Paul E. McKenney 97b430320c Immunize rcu_dereference() against crazy compiler writers
Turns out that compiler writers are a bit more aggressive about optimizing
than one might expect.  This patch prevents a number of such optimizations
from messing up rcu_deference().  This is not merely a theoretical problem, as
evidenced by the rmb() in mce_log().

* rcu_read_lock - mark the beginning of an RCU read-side critical section.

* When synchronize_rcu() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
* are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the
* synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
* CPUs exit their critical sections. Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
* on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
* sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
* until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
*
* Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
* with RCU read-side critical sections. One way that this can happen
* is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
* read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
* an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
* (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
* callback is invoked. This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
* section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
* therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
* callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
* RCU callback is invoked.
*
* RCU read-side critical sections may be nested. Any deferred actions
* will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
* completes.
*
* It is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section.
