From af2c1401e6f9177483be4fad876d0073669df9df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mel Gorman Date: Wed, 18 Dec 2013 17:08:45 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm: numa: guarantee that tlb_flush_pending updates are visible before page table updates According to documentation on barriers, stores issued before a LOCK can complete after the lock implying that it's possible tlb_flush_pending can be visible after a page table update. As per revised documentation, this patch adds a smp_mb__before_spinlock to guarantee the correct ordering. Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman Acked-by: Paul E.
