Need to remove the trailing ";" I too I think.
Alternatively, to keep the braces, the standard practice is to use
do { ... } while(0)
If trailing ";" is not removed
the code:
if (condition)
    rte_smp_rmb();
else
    anything();

will be like below after precompiling:
if (condition)
    asm volatile("dsb " "ld" : : : "memory");;
else
    anything();
Then, the same error - error: 'else' without a previous 'if'

Ignore my words above,thanks
sorry for the inconvenience.
And I've sent out v4 in this mail thread. The ";" has been removed.
If no more comments, I will send out v5 (2 patch sets for 17 and 18)
