-* rte_smp_*mb: These APIs provide full barrier functionality. However, many
-  use cases do not require full barriers. To support such use cases, DPDK has
-  adopted atomic operations from
-  https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/_005f_005fatomic-Builtins.html. These
-  operations and a new wrapper ``rte_atomic_thread_fence`` instead of
-  ``__atomic_thread_fence`` must be used for patches that need to be merged in
-  20.08 onwards. This change will not introduce any performance degradation.
 
 * mempool: The ``flushthresh`` field in ``struct rte_mempool_cache`` is obsolete,
   and will be removed in DPDK 26.11.
