I suggest to split this patch into multiple patches ("one problem per
patch" and all that), say:

  1/3 - riscv/barrier: Define __{mb,rmb,wmb}
  2/3 - riscv/barrier: Define RISCV_FULL_BARRIER
  3/3 - riscv/barrier: Resolve checkpath.pl warnings

Please also review the changelog(s), since the description above (in
particular the information about __{mb,rmb,wmb}) doesn't seem to match
the code changes.
