A bit of bike-shedding. While there's no common ISA term for "memory
barrier" (also known as a "membar", "memory fence", etc.), we already
refer to it as a "memory barrier" (or "mb") in include/qemu/atomic.h and
docs/atomics.txt. Why don't be consistent and avoid introducing yet
another term for the same thing?

Kind regards,
Sergey
