Then do this pls.
This is a combined diff - do a second patch which does only remove the
smp_wmb(). The smp_wmb() there is not needed as the cmpxchg() already
implies a smp_mb() so there's no need for that separate, explicit one.
But it would be prudent to have it in a separate patch just in case.
Thx.
