Subject: [PATCH 3/5] Input: ads7846 - remove unneeded memory barriers
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 22:49:55 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261112064957.1796975-4-dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261112064957.1796975-1-dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>
The driver invokes mb() after setting the stopped flag in ads7846_stop()
and ads7846_restart(). These mandatory barriers lack pairing barriers on
the reader side and are unnecessary.
The wait queue operations wake_up() and wait_event_timeout(), along
with disable_irq() and enable_irq(), already provide the required
synchronization and memory ordering when stopping and restarting the
device polling. Remove the redundant barriers.
