locking/Documentation: Mention smp_cond_acquire()
... do this next to smp_load_acquire() when first mentioning ACQUIRE. While this call is briefly explained and control dependencies are mentioned later, it does not hurt the reader.

This acts as a one-way permeable barrier. It guarantees that all memory

operations after the ACQUIRE operation will appear to happen after the
|

ACQUIRE operation with respect to the other components of the system.
|

ACQUIRE operations include LOCK operations and smp_load_acquire()
|

operations.
|

ACQUIRE operations include LOCK operations and both smp_load_acquire()
|

and smp_cond_acquire() operations. The later builds the necessary ACQUIRE
|

semantics from relying on a control dependency and smp_rmb().

Memory operations that occur before an ACQUIRE operation may appear to
|

happen after it completes.
