There is no such function 'smp_rmb' in DPDK.
But:
.../arch/arm/rte_atomic.h:#define rte_smp_rmb() rte_rmb()
.../arch/ppc_64/rte_atomic.h:#define rte_smp_rmb() rte_compiler_barrier()
.../arch/tile/rte_atomic.h:#define rte_smp_rmb() rte_compiler_barrier()
.../arch/x86/rte_atomic.h:#define rte_smp_rmb() rte_compiler_barrier()
