Subject: [PATCH 15/16] netfilter: Replace smp_read_barrier_depends() with lockless_dereference()
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2014 14:24:21 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1415906662-4576-16-git-send-email-bobby.prani@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1415906662-4576-1-git-send-email-bobby.prani@gmail.com>
Recently lockless_dereference() was added which can be used in place of
hard-coding smp_read_barrier_depends(). The following PATCH makes the change.
