Joel Fernandes (Google) c2e13112e8 rcu/segcblist: Add additional comments to explain smp_mb() ...

One counter-intuitive property of RCU is the fact that full memory
barriers are needed both before and after updates to the full
(non-segmented) length.  This patch therefore helps to assist the
reader's intuition by adding appropriate comments.
