[PATCH] Fix: xtensa: add missing sync_core
From: Mathieu Desnoyers
Date: Sun Aug 27 2017 - 17:37:26 EST
The membarrier system call now requires all architectures to implement
sync_core(). On Xtensa, it is provided by the EXTW instruction.
[ Completely untested! Can someone on the xtensa side confirm whether
EXTW is the right way to serialize core execution and try it out ? ]
