Paul E. McKenney 0b8c06b75e tools/memory-model: Add a simple entry point document
Current LKMM documentation assumes that the reader already understands
concurrency in the Linux kernel, which won't necessarily always be the
case.  This commit supplies a simple.txt file that provides a starting
point for someone who is new to concurrency in the Linux kernel.
That said, this file might also useful as a reminder to experienced
developers of simpler approaches to dealing with concurrency.
