    [PATCH] smp_call_function needs mb() · 856eeb53

    We really need a memory barrier in smp_call_function(), so that the
    other cpu's get the updated value when they get IPI'd immediately
    afterwards.
    
    This seems to be true on some old (and arguably broken) hardware where
    the IPI generation and reception doesn't synchronize enough.
