   7 * These are here in an effort to more fully work around Spitfire Errata
   8 * #51.  Essentially, if a memory barrier occurs soon after a mispredicted
   9 * branch, the chip can stop executing instructions until a trap occurs.
  10 * Therefore, if interrupts are disabled, the chip can hang forever.
  11 *
  12 * It used to be believed that the memory barrier had to be right in the
  13 * delay slot, but a case has been traced recently wherein the memory barrier
  14 * was one instruction after the branch delay slot and the chip still hung.
  15 * The offending sequence was the following in sym_wakeup_done() of the
  16 * sym53c8xx_2 driver:
  17 *
  18 *      call    sym_ccb_from_dsa, 0
  19 *       movge  %icc, 0, %l0
  20 *      brz,pn  %o0, .LL1303
  21 *       mov    %o0, %l2
  22 *      membar  #LoadLoad
  23 *
  24 * The branch has to be mispredicted for the bug to occur.  Therefore, we put
  25 * the memory barrier explicitly into a "branch always, predicted taken"
  26 * delay slot to avoid the problem case.
