I think we've been at that discussion before, and eventually agreed
there's no point why sei() should imply a memory barrier.  I forgot
about the details though, it's been a number of years ago.

Anyway, it might make sense to provide an additional macro like
__memory_barrier() that expands to __asm__ __volatile__(""::"memory").
