Linux Virtualization - Jan 2016 - [PATCH 1/3] checkpatch.pl: add missing memory barriers

As part of memory barrier cleanup, this patchset
extends checkpatch to make it easier to stop
incorrect memory barrier usage.

This applies on top of my series
	arch: barrier cleanup + barriers for virt
and will be included in the next version of the series.

SMP-only barriers were missing in checkpatch.pl

Refactor code slightly to make adding more variants easier.

Introduction of __smp barriers cleans up a bunch of duplicate code, but
it gives people an additional handle onto a "new" set of barriers -
just
because they're prefixed with __* unfortunately doesn't stop anyone from
using it (as happened with other arch stuff before.)

Add a checkpatch test so it will trigger a warning.

Add virt_ barriers to list of barriers to check for
presence of a comment.

I think using map, which so far checkpatch doesn't use,
makes smp_barriers harder to understand and it'd be
better to enumerate them.

It would be better to use /\b$all_barriers\s*\(/
as there's no reason for the capture and there
could be a space between the function and the
open parenthesis.

Are these virt_ barriers used anywhere?

I see some virtio_ barrier like uses.
