Hi,

We tested the system call on our ARM board (Wandboard, SoC
Freescale i.MX6 Quad) by applying this patch on top of
Linux 4.3-rc1. Both the membarrier kselftest and
Userspace RCU regression tests (the latter manually wired up
on sys_membarrier) work fine.

Tested-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoy...@efficios.com>

sys_membarrier has been pulled into Linux 4.3-rc1. Please
feel free to wire it up on ARM.

Thanks!

Mathieu
