So I must object to these barrier comments; stating which other barrier
they pair with is indeed good and required, but its not sufficient.

A barrier comment should also explain the data ordering -- the most
important part.

As it stands its not clear to me these barriers are required at all, but
this is not code I understand so I might well miss something obvious.
