+ * The following mb guarantees that previous clear of a PENDING bit
+ * will not be reordered with any speculative LOADS or STORES from
+ * work->current_func, which is executed afterwards. This possible
+ * reordering can lead to a missed execution on attempt to qeueue
+ * the same @work. E.g. consider this case:
+ *
+ * CPU#0 CPU#1
+ * ---------------------------- --------------------------------
+ *
+ * 1 STORE event_indicated
+ * 2 queue_work_on() {
+ * 3 test_and_set_bit(PENDING)
+ * 4 } set_..._and_clear_pending() {
+ * 5 set_work_data() # clear bit
+ * 6 smp_mb()
+ * 7 work->current_func() {
+ * 8 LOAD event_indicated
+ * }
+ *
+ * Without an explicit full barrier speculative LOAD on line 8 can
+ * be executed before CPU#0 does STORE on line 1. If that happens,
+ * CPU#0 observes the PENDING bit is still set and new execution of
+ * a @work is not queued in a hope, that CPU#1 will eventually
+ * finish the queued @work. Meanwhile CPU#1 does not see
+ * event_indicated is set, because speculative LOAD was executed
+ * before actual STORE.
