Subject: [PATCH v7 02/14] fs: spell out fenced ->i_state accesses with explicit smp_wmb/smp_rmb
Date: Thu, 9 Oct 2025 09:59:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251009075929.1203950-3-mjguzik@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251009075929.1203950-1-mjguzik@gmail.com>
The incomming helpers don't ship with _release/_acquire variants, for
the time being anyway.
