+ * smp_cond_acquire() - Spin wait for cond with ACQUIRE ordering
+ * @cond: boolean expression to wait for
+ *
+ * Equivalent to using smp_load_acquire() on the condition variable but employs
+ * the control dependency of the wait to reduce the barrier on many platforms.
+ *
+ * The control dependency provides a LOAD->STORE order, the additional RMB
+ * provides LOAD->LOAD order, together they provide LOAD->{LOAD,STORE} order,
+ * aka. ACQUIRE.
