cpufreq: stats: Add memory barrier to store_reset()
There is nothing to prevent the CPU or the compiler from reordering
the writes to stats->reset_time and stats->reset_pending in
store_reset(), in which case the readers of stats->reset_time may see
a stale value. Moreover, on 32-bit arches the write to reset_time
cannot be completed in one go, so the readers of it may see a
partially updated value in that case.
To prevent that from happening, add a write memory barrier between
the writes to stats->reset_time and stats->reset_pending in
store_reset() and corresponding read memory barrier in the
readers of stats->reset_time.
