+ * This logic has an ordering constraint:
+ *
+ * CPU 0: Write to a PTE for 'next'
+ * CPU 0: load bit 1 in mm_cpumask. if nonzero, send IPI.
+ * CPU 1: set bit 1 in next's mm_cpumask
+ * CPU 1: load from the PTE that CPU 0 writes (implicit)
+ *
+ * We need to prevent an outcome in which CPU 1 observes
+ * the new PTE value and CPU 0 observes bit 1 clear in
+ * mm_cpumask. (If that occurs, then the IPI will never
+ * be sent, and CPU 0's TLB will contain a stale entry.)
+ *
+ * The bad outcome can occur if either CPU's load is
+ * reordered before that CPU's store, so both CPUs much
+ * execute full barriers to prevent this from happening.
+ *
+ * Thus, switch_mm needs a full barrier between the
+ * store to mm_cpumask and any operation that could load
+ * from next->pgd. This barrier synchronizes with
+ * remote TLB flushers. Fortunately, load_cr3 is
+ * serializing and thus acts as a full barrier.
