From fdab649b1aa732cd6e79654349088465cdff49af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2012 16:34:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Remove redundant memory barrier from __call_rcu() The first memory barrier in __call_rcu() is supposed to order any updates done beforehand by the caller against the actual queuing of the callback. However, the second memory barrier (which is intended to order incrementing the queue lengths before queuing the callback) is also between the caller's updates and the queuing of the callback. The second memory barrier can therefore serve both purposes. This commit therefore removes the first memory barrier. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Paul E.
