[PATCH tools/memory-model 3/4] tools/memory-order: Add documentation of new litmus test

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Wed Mar 07 2018 - 12:29:46 EST


The litmus-tests/README file lacks any mention of the new litmus test
ISA2+pooncelock+pooncelock+pombonce.litmus. This commit therefore
adds a description of this test.
