[PATCH] Remove useless wmb() memory barrier

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

 



wake_up's implementation does an implicit memory barrier and I think
that's the only sane semantics as the caller shouldn't have to worry.
So this write memory barrier is useless.
