     * read_barrier_depends - Flush all pending reads that subsequents reads
     * depend on.
     *
     * No data-dependent reads from memory-like regions are ever reordered
     * over this barrier.  All reads preceding this primitive are guaranteed
     * to access memory (but not necessarily other CPUs' caches) before any
     * reads following this primitive that depend on the data return by
     * any of the preceding reads.  This primitive is much lighter weight than
     * rmb() on most CPUs, and is never heavier weight than is
     * rmb().
     *
     * These ordering constraints are respected by both the local CPU
     * and the compiler.
     *
     * Ordering is not guaranteed by anything other than these primitives,
     * not even by data dependencies.  See the documentation for
     * memory_barrier() for examples and URLs to more information.
     *
     * For example, the following code would force ordering (the initial
     * value of "a" is zero, "b" is one, and "p" is "&a"):
     *
     * <programlisting>
     *      CPU 0                           CPU 1
     *
     *      b = 2;
     *      memory_barrier();
     *      p = &b;                         q = p;
     *                                      read_barrier_depends();
     *                                      d = *q;
     * </programlisting>
     *
     *
     * because the read of "*q" depends on the read of "p" and these
     * two reads are separated by a read_barrier_depends().  However,
     * the following code, with the same initial values for "a" and "b":
     *
     * <programlisting>
     *      CPU 0                           CPU 1
     *
     *      a = 2;
     *      memory_barrier();
     *      b = 3;                          y = b;
     *                                      read_barrier_depends();
     *                                      x = a;
     * </programlisting>
     *
     * does not enforce ordering, since there is no data dependency between
     * the read of "a" and the read of "b".  Therefore, on some CPUs, such
     * as Alpha, "y" could be set to 3 and "x" to 0.  Use rmb()
     * in cases like this where there are no data dependencies.
