/*
* \brief Memory barrier
* \author Martin Stein
* \date 2014-11-12
*
* The memory barrier prevents memory accesses from being reordered in such a
* way that accesses to the guarded resource get outside the guarded stage. As
* cmpxchg() defines the start of the guarded stage it also represents an
* effective memory barrier.
*
* Note, we assume a compiler-memory barrier is sufficient on ARMv5.
