Memory barriers are building blocks for concurrent code, hence provide
a minimal set of them.
The compiler barrier, barrier(), is implemented in inline asm instead of
using core::sync::atomic::compiler_fence() because memory models are
different: kernel's atomics are implemented in inline asm therefore the
compiler barrier should be implemented in inline asm as well. Also it's
currently only public to the kernel crate until there's a reasonable
driver usage.
