Subject: [PATCH memory-model 0/14] Updates to the formal memory model

Hello!

This series contains updates to the Linux kernel's formal memory model
in tools/memory-model, along with corresponding changes in documentation
and Linux-kernel code.  These patches are ready for inclusion into -tip.

1.	Add a litmus test for full multi-copy atomicity.

2.	Fix the name of the ISA2+pooncelock+pooncelock+pombonce litmus test.

3.	Add Daniel Lustig as an LKMM reviewer, with focus on RISC-V,
	courtesy of Palmer Dabbelt.

4.	Update Korean translation to fix broken DMA vs. MMIO ordering
	example, courtesy of SeongJae Park with edits suggested by
	Byungchul Park.

5-6.	Remove the now-obsolete ACCESS_ONCE() from recipes and the model
	itself, courtesy of Mark Rutland.

7.	Make regression-test scripts executable.

8.	Describe atomic_set as a write operation, courtesy of Jonathan
	Neuschäfer.

9.	Add informal LKMM documentation to MAINTAINERS.

10.	Use smp_mb() in wake_woken_function(), courtesy of Andrea Parri.

11.	Clarify requirements for smp_mb__after_spinlock(), courtesy of
	Andrea Parri.

12.	Update wake_up() and friends' memory-barrier guarantees,
	courtesy of Andrea Parri.

13.	Fix "smb_wmb()" typo (should be "smp_wmb()"), courtesy of
	Yauheni Kaliuta.

14.	Rename litmus tests to comply to norm7, courtesy of Andrea Parri.

							Thanx, Paul
