Subject: [PATCH 2/3] tools: memory-model: Add definitions of plain and marked
 accesses

This patch adds definitions for marked and plain accesses to the
Linux-Kernel Memory Model.  It also modifies the definitions of the
existing parts of the model (including the cumul-fence, prop, hb, pb,
and rb relations) so as to make them apply only to marked accesses.

Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@...land.harvard.edu>
