[PATCH] pnfs/flexfiles: Fix misplaced barrier in nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds

From: Baptiste Lepers
Date: Sun Sep 05 2021 - 21:59:40 EST


_nfs4_pnfs_v3/v4_ds_connect do
some work
smp_wmb
ds->ds_clp = clp;

And nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds currently does
smp_rmb
if(ds->ds_clp)
...

This patch places the smp_rmb after the if. This ensures that following
reads only happen once nfs4_ff_layout_prepare_ds has checked that data
has been properly initialized.

Fixes: d67ae825a59d6 ("pnfs/flexfiles: Add the FlexFile Layout Driver")
