The [smp_]read_barrier_depends() barrier macros no longer exist as part of the Linux memory model, so remove all references to them from the Documentation/ directory. Although this is fairly mechanical on the whole, we drop the "CACHE COHERENCY" section entirely from 'memory-barriers.txt' as it doesn't make any sense now that the dependency barriers have been removed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
