Subject: [PATCH] KVM: Remove redundant smp_mb() in the kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page()
Date: Fri,  4 Mar 2016 09:35:12 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457055312-27067-1-git-send-email-tianyu.lan@intel.com> (raw)

The following kvm_flush_remote_tlbs() will call smp_mb() inside and so
remove smp_mb() here.
