Subject: [PATCH 4/4] ceph: fix improper use of smp_mb__before_atomic()
Date:   Mon, 20 May 2019 19:23:58 +0200
Message-Id: <1558373038-5611-5-git-send-email-andrea.parri@amarulasolutions.com>
In-Reply-To: <1558373038-5611-1-git-send-email-andrea.parri@amarulasolutions.com>
References: <1558373038-5611-1-git-send-email-andrea.parri@amarulasolutions.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

This barrier only applies to the read-modify-write operations; in
particular, it does not apply to the atomic64_set() primitive.

Replace the barrier with an smp_mb().
