Subject: [PATCH v9 6/7] rcu/tree: segcblist: Remove redundant smp_mb()s
Date: Tue, 3 Nov 2020 09:26:02 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201103142603.1302207-7-joel@joelfernandes.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201103142603.1302207-1-joel@joelfernandes.org>
This memory barrier is not needed as rcu_segcblist_add_len() already
includes a memory barrier *before* and *after* the length of the list is
updated.
Same reasoning for rcu_segcblist_enqueue().
