This adds a barrier after setup_c(). This is necessary because otherwise
some global variable assignments may be reordered by the compiler to be
executed before setup_c which cannot work.
This was observed when doing other unrelated changes to the start function,
it seems in current mainline state the compiler does not actually reorder
the code.
