Ingo Molnar 40eb0cb493 x86/cpu: Fix typos and improve the comments in sync_core()
- Fix typos.

- Move the compiler barrier comment to the top, because it's valid for the
  whole function, not just the legacy branch.

*
* b) Text was modified on a different CPU, may subsequently be
* executed on this CPU, and you want to make sure the new version
* gets executed. This generally means you're calling this in an IPI.

* (it seems to be a bit more than 2x slower than the fastest
* options) and that it unmasks NMIs. The "push %cs" is needed,
* because in paravirtual environments __KERNEL_CS may not be a
* valid CS value when we do IRET directly.
*
* In case NMI unmasking or performance ever becomes a problem,
* the next best option appears to be MOV-to-CR2 and an
* unconditional jump. That sequence also works on all CPUs,
* but it will fault at CPL3 (i.e. Xen PV).
*
* CPUID is the conventional way, but it's nasty: it doesn't
* exist on some 486-like CPUs, and it usually exits to a
