      6 * This litmus test demonstrates that lightweight ordering suffices for
      7 * the load-buffering pattern, in other words, preventing all processes
      8 * reading from the preceding process's write.  In this example, the
      9 * combination of a control dependency and a full memory barrier are enough
     10 * to do the trick.  (But the full memory barrier could be replaced with
     11 * another control dependency and order would still be maintained.)
