Subject: [PATCH] Adding volatile modifier to tmp variable in memory test

Issue explanation:

./sysbench/sysbench --test=memory --num-threads=16 \
		    --memory-block-size=268435456 \
		    --memory-total-size=137438953472 \
		    --memory-oper=read \
		    --memory-access-mode=seq \
		    --memory-scope=local run

Without this commit the time to run the above command is 0.0004 seconds.
With this commit the time is greater than 3 seconds.  Essentially,
without the volatile modifier, the compiler optimizes read access so
that no real access happens.
