[ Upstream commitdda5f312bb] The sync_*() ops on arch/arm are defined in terms of the regular bitops with no special handling. This is not correct, as UP kernels elide barriers for the fully-ordered operations, and so the required ordering is lost when such UP kernels are run under a hypervsior on an SMP system. Fix this by defining sync ops with the required barriers. Note: On 32-bit arm, the sync_*() ops are currently only used by Xen, which requires ARMv7, but the semantics can be implemented for ARMv6+.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
