Subject: [PATCH 1/2] memorder: Express `value-returning RMW` more explicitly
Date: Sat,  2 Sep 2017 11:49:36 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170902024937.4227-1-sj38.park@gmail.com> (raw)

A sentence represents `Successful Non-Relaced Non-void RMW' row in
`Linux-Kernel Memory-Ordering Cheat Sheet` as `value-returning RMW` row.
Because it is far different expression, some reader may confuse.  This
commit remove the confuse by representing the row with exactly same
words.
