Hi, Other than Peter's recent rename of set_mb to reflect the SMP ordering nature of the call, there really hasn't updates that further reflect this. Here are some pretty straightforward updates, but ultimately wonder if we cannot make the call the same for all archs; which is where we seem to be headed _anyway_, more of this in Patch 3 which updates x86.
Patch 1 is just one a snuck in while looking at arch code. Only tested on the x86 bits. Thanks!
