Subject: [PATCH] m32r: make flush_cpumask non-volatile.
Date: Sat, 09 May 2015 03:39:52 +0930	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87y4kzkkjz.fsf@rustcorp.com.au> (raw)

We cast away the volatile, but really, why make it volatile at all?
We already do a mb() inside the cpumask_empty() loop.

Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
