Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 03/12] rcu: Remove ACCESS_ONCE() from jiffies
Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2014 13:35:50 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1392672959-6386-3-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1392672959-6386-1-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Because jiffies is one of a very few variables marked "volatile", there
is no need to use ACCESS_ONCE() when accessing it.  This commit therefore
removes the redundant ACCESS_ONCE() wrappers.
