Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 18/19] RISC-V: Upgrade smp_mb__after_spinlock() to iorw,iorw
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2020 17:38:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200720213851.407715-18-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200720213851.407715-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@google.com>

[ Upstream commit 38b7c2a3ffb1fce8358ddc6006cfe5c038ff9963 ]

While digging through the recent mmiowb preemption issue it came up that
we aren't actually preventing IO from crossing a scheduling boundary.
While it's a bit ugly to overload smp_mb__after_spinlock() with this
behavior, it's what PowerPC is doing so there's some precedent.
