Subject: [PATCH 0/2] tools/memory-model: remove ACCESS_ONCE()

Since commit:

  b899a850431e2dd0 ("compiler.h: Remove ACCESS_ONCE()")

... there has been no definition of ACCESS_ONCE() in the kernel tree,
and it has been necessary to use READ_ONCE() or WRITE_ONCE() instead.

However, since then the kernel memory model was added to the Linux tree,
sporting new instances of ACCESS_ONCE() in examples and in the memory
model itself.

These patches remove the new instances of ACCESS_ONCE() for consistency
with the contemporary codebase.

Thanks,
Mark.
