-SLEEP AND WAKE-UP FUNCTIONS
----------------------------
-
-Sleeping and waking on an event flagged in global data can be viewed as an
-interaction between two pieces of data: the task state of the task waiting for
-the event and the global data used to indicate the event.  To make sure that
-these appear to happen in the right order, the primitives to begin the process
-of going to sleep, and the primitives to initiate a wake up imply certain
-barriers.
-
-Firstly, the sleeper normally follows something like this sequence of events:
-
-	for (;;) {
-		set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
-		if (event_indicated)
-			break;
-		schedule();
-	}
-
-A general memory barrier is interpolated automatically by set_current_state()
-after it has altered the task state:
-
-	CPU 1
-	===============================
-	set_current_state();
-	  set_mb();
-	    STORE current->state
-	    <general barrier>
-	LOAD event_indicated
-
-set_current_state() may be wrapped by:
-
-	prepare_to_wait();
-	prepare_to_wait_exclusive();
-
-which therefore also imply a general memory barrier after setting the state.
-The whole sequence above is available in various canned forms, all of which
-interpolate the memory barrier in the right place:
-
-	wait_event();
-	wait_event_interruptible();
-	wait_event_interruptible_exclusive();
-	wait_event_interruptible_timeout();
-	wait_event_killable();
-	wait_event_timeout();
-	wait_on_bit();
-	wait_on_bit_lock();
-
-
-Secondly, code that performs a wake up normally follows something like this:
-
-	event_indicated = 1;
-	wake_up(&event_wait_queue);
-
-or:
-
-	event_indicated = 1;
-	wake_up_process(event_daemon);
-
-A write memory barrier is implied by wake_up() and co. if and only if they wake
-something up.  The barrier occurs before the task state is cleared, and so sits
-between the STORE to indicate the event and the STORE to set TASK_RUNNING:
-
-	CPU 1				CPU 2
-	===============================	===============================
-	set_current_state();		STORE event_indicated
-	  set_mb();			wake_up();
-	    STORE current->state	  <write barrier>
-	    <general barrier>		  STORE current->state
-	LOAD event_indicated
-
-The available waker functions include:
-
-	complete();
-	wake_up();
-	wake_up_all();
-	wake_up_bit();
-	wake_up_interruptible();
-	wake_up_interruptible_all();
-	wake_up_interruptible_nr();
-	wake_up_interruptible_poll();
-	wake_up_interruptible_sync();
-	wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll();
-	wake_up_locked();
-	wake_up_locked_poll();
-	wake_up_nr();
-	wake_up_poll();
-	wake_up_process();
-
-
-[!] Note that the memory barriers implied by the sleeper and the waker do _not_
-order multiple stores before the wake-up with respect to loads of those stored
-values after the sleeper has called set_current_state().  For instance, if the
-sleeper does:
-
-	set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
-	if (event_indicated)
-		break;
-	__set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING);
-	do_something(my_data);
-
-and the waker does:
-
-	my_data = value;
-	event_indicated = 1;
-	wake_up(&event_wait_queue);
-
-there's no guarantee that the change to event_indicated will be perceived by
-the sleeper as coming after the change to my_data.  In such a circumstance, the
-code on both sides must interpolate its own memory barriers between the
-separate data accesses.  Thus the above sleeper ought to do:
-
-	set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
-	if (event_indicated) {
-		smp_rmb();
-		do_something(my_data);
-	}
-
-and the waker should do:
-
-	my_data = value;
-	smp_wmb();
-	event_indicated = 1;
-	wake_up(&event_wait_queue);
