Remove mmiowb() from the kernel memory barrier API and instead, for architectures that need it, hide the barrier inside spin_unlock() when MMIO has been performed inside the critical section. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAABCgAdFiEEPxTL6PPUbjXGY88ct6xw3ITBYzQFAlzMFaUACgkQt6xw3ITB YzRICQgAiv7wF/yIbBhDOmCNCAKDO59chvFQWxXWdGk/aAB56kwKAMXJgLOvlMG/ VRuuLyParTFQETC3jaxKgnO/1hb+PZLDt2Q2KqixtjIzBypKUPWvK2sf6THhSRF1 GK0DBVUd1rCrWrR815+SPb8el4xXtdBzvAVB+Fx35PXVNpdRdqCkK+EQ6UnXGokm rXXHbnfsnquBDtmb4CR4r2beH+aNElXbdt0Kj8VcE5J7f7jTdW3z6Q9WFRvdKmK7 yrsxXXB2w/EsWXOwFp0SLTV5+fgeGgTvv8uLjDw+SG6t0E0PebxjNAflT7dPrbYL WecjKC9WqBxrGY+4ew6YJP70ijLBCw== =aC8m -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'arm64-mmiowb' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull mmiowb removal from Will Deacon: "Remove Mysterious Macro Intended to Obscure Weird Behaviours (mmiowb()) Remove mmiowb() from the kernel memory barrier API and instead, for architectures that need it, hide the barrier inside spin_unlock() when MMIO has been performed inside the critical section.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
