Subject: [patch 7/8] hci_usb: replace mb with smp_mb
Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2008 14:50:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200809222150.m8MLog27031875@imap1.linux-foundation.org> (raw)

From: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com>

smp_mb is enough for ordering memory operations among processors,and mb is
more expensive than smp_mb for UP machine, so replace it with smp_mb().
