Hello! This series contains changes to the memory model, including the formal model in tools/memory-model and documentation in memory-barriers.txt (plus the Korean translation). These changes are ready for inclusion in -tip. 1. Rename LKMM's "link" and "rcu-path" relations to "rcu-link" and "rb", respectively, courtesy of Alan Stern. 2. Redefine LKMM's "rb" relation in terms of rcu-fence in order to match the structure of LKMM's other strong fences, courtesy of Alan Stern. 3. Fix memory-barriers.txt's ordering example contrasting DMA to MMIO, courtesy of Will Deacon. 4-6. Fixes related to spin_is_locked(), courtesy of Andrea Parri. 7-11.
