From ae4cd0b1a4756344cb99c0004d156b585cf9e907 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Burton Date: Tue, 1 Oct 2019 21:53:41 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: barrier: Make __smp_mb__before_atomic() a no-op for Loongson3 Loongson3 systems with CONFIG_CPU_LOONGSON3_WORKAROUNDS enabled already emit a full completion barrier as part of the inline assembly containing LL/SC loops for atomic operations. As such the barrier emitted by __smp_mb__before_atomic() is redundant, and we can remove it.
