    function-graph: add memory barriers for accessing task's ret_stack · 26c01624
    Steven Rostedt authored
    The code that handles the tasks ret_stack allocation for every task
    assumes that only an interrupt can cause issues (even though interrupts
    are disabled).
    
    In reality, the code is allocating the ret_stack for tasks that may be
    running on other CPUs and there are not efficient memory barriers to
    handle this case.
    
    [ Impact: prevent crash due to using of uninitialized ret_stack variables ]
