NPS device got 256 cores and each got 16 HW threads (SMT).
We use EZchip dedicated ISA to trigger HW scheduler of the
core that current HW thread belongs to.
This scheduling makes sure that data beyond barrier is available
to all HW threads in core and by that to all in device (4K).

ARCv2 based HS38 cores are weakly ordered and thus explicit barriers for
kernel proper.
SMP barrier is provided by DMB instruction which also guarantees local
barrier hence used as backend of smp_*mb() as well as *mb() APIs
Also hookup barriers into MMIO accessors to avoid ordering issues in IO

Commit 93ea02bb8435 ("arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations")
wired generic barrier.h for ARC, but failed to delete the existing file.
In 3.15, due to rcupdate.h updates, this causes a build breakage on ARC:
CC arch/arc/kernel/asm-offsets.s
In file included from include/linux/sched.h:45:0,
from arch/arc/kernel/asm-offsets.c:9:
include/linux/rculist.h: In function __list_add_rcu:
include/linux/rculist.h:54:2: error: implicit declaration of function smp_store_release [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
rcu_assign_pointer(list_next_rcu(prev), new);

Move the barriers functions that depend on the atomic implementation
into the atomic implementation.

This covers the UP / SMP (with no hardware assist for atomic r-m-w) as
well as ARC700 LLOCK/SCOND insns based.
