Without this memory barrier, the file-storage thread may fail to
escape from the following while loop, because it may observe new
common->thread_wakeup_needed and old bh->state which are updated by
the callback functions.
/* Wait for the CBW to arrive */
while (bh->state != BUF_STATE_FULL) {
rc = sleep_thread(common);
if (rc)
return rc;
}
