[PATCH v3 05/19] asm/rwonce: Remove smp_read_barrier_depends() invocation

Will Deacon will at kernel.org
Fri Jul 10 12:51:49 EDT 2020


Alpha overrides __READ_ONCE() directly, so there's no need to use
smp_read_barrier_depends() in the core code. This also means that
__READ_ONCE() can be relied upon to provide dependency ordering.
