+ * @mode: which threads
+ * @key: opaque value to be passed to wakeup targets
+ *
+ * The sync wakeup differs in that the waker knows that it will schedule
+ * away soon, so while the target thread will be woken up, it will not
+ * be migrated to another CPU - ie. the two threads are 'synchronized'
+ * with each other. This can prevent needless bouncing between CPUs.
+ *
+ * On UP it can prevent extra preemption.
+ *
+ * If this function wakes up a task, it executes a full memory barrier before
+ * accessing the task state.
