The comment describing the loongson_llsc_mb() reorder case doesn't make any sense what so ever. Instruction re-ordering is not an SMP artifact, but rather a CPU local phenomenon. Clarify the comment by explaining that these issue cause a coherence fail. For the branch speculation case; if futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() needs one at the bne branch target, then surely the normal __cmpxch_asm() implementation does too. We cannot rely on the barriers from cmpxchg() because cmpxchg_local() is implemented with the same macro, and branch prediction and speculation are, too, CPU local.
