From 33b5881d11c5d852662efb764f5054347296a062 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Borntraeger Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2015 16:23:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] s390/vdso: use correct memory barrier By definition smp_wmb only orders writes against writes. (Finish all previous writes, and do not start any future write). To protect the vdso init code against early reads on other CPUs, let's use a full smp_mb at the end of vdso init. As right now smp_wmb is implemented as full serialization, this needs no stable backport, but this change will be necessary if we reimplement smp_wmb.
