Subject: [PATCH net-next 5/7] net/sonic: Remove explicit memory barriers
Date: Sun, 16 Feb 2020 08:03:32 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0124da144de7ddce8d1fe6d4fd72a17c343a5f04.1581800613.git.fthain@telegraphics.com.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1581800613.git.fthain@telegraphics.com.au>

The explicit memory barriers are redundant now that proper locking and
MMIO accessors have been employed.
