[rfc PATCH] ieee1394: ohci1394: delete bogus spinlock, flush MMIO writes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Remove a per-host spinlock which was only taken by the IRQ handler,
i.e. where no concurrency was involved.

All MMIO writes which were surrounded by the spinlock as well as the
very last MMIO write of the IRQ handler are now explicitly flushed by
MMIO reads of the respective register.

Some of the flushes may be unnecessary. Comments?
