Hello, Paul.

I changed slab.c to use synchronize_sched() for full memory barrier. First
call happens on kmem_cache_init_late() and it would not be a problem
because, at this time, num_online_cpus() <= 1 and synchronize_sched()
would return immediately. Second call site would be shmem_init()
and it seems that system hangs on it. Since smp is already initialized
at that time, there would be some effect of synchronize_sched() but I
can't imagine what's wrong here. Is it invalid moment to call
synchronize_sched()?

Note that my x86 virtual machine works fine even if
synchronize_sched() is called in shmem_init() but Geert's some ARM
machines (not all ARM machine) don't work well with it.

Thanks.
