In the process of writing up the mechanical proof of correctness for the dynticks/preemptable-RCU interface, I noticed misplaced memory barriers in rcu_enter_nohz() and rcu_exit_nohz(). This patch puts them in the right place and adds a comment. The key thing to keep in mind is that rcu_enter_nohz() is -exiting- the mode that can legally execute RCU read-side critical sections. The memory barrier must be between any potential RCU read-side critical sections and the increment of the per-CPU dynticks_progress_counter, and thus must come -before- this increment. And vice versa for rcu_exit_nohz(). The locking in the scheduler is probably saving us for the moment. Also, switch to smp_mb() - we don't need a barrier for uniprocessor kernels.
