Subject: [PATCH] Documentation/memory-barriers: fix wrong comment in example

There is wrong comment in example for compiler store omit behavior.  It
shows example of the problem and than problem solved version code.
However, the comment in the solved version is still same with not solved
version.  Fix the wrong statement with this commit.
