Furthermore, on architectures which don't respect ordering of address dependencies (i.e. Alpha), the reads from CPU0 can also be re-ordered. This patch adds an smp_wmb() before the assignment to table->private (which is essentially publishing newinfo) to ensure that all writes to newinfo will be observed before plugging it into the table structure. A dependent-read barrier is also added on the consumer sides, to ensure the same ordering requirements are also respected there. Cc: Paul E.
