Subject: [PATCH] vmalloc: Use atomic_long_add_return_relaxed()
Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2025 13:26:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250415112646.113091-1-urezki@gmail.com> (raw)

Switch from the atomic_long_add_return() to its relaxed version.

We do not need a full memory barrier or any memory ordering during
increasing the "vmap_lazy_nr" variable. What we only need is to do it
atomically. This is what atomic_long_add_return_relaxed() guarantees.
