[PATCH v7 13/14] scsi: ufs: commit descriptors before setting the doorbell

From: Yaniv Gardi
Date: Mon Feb 01 2016 - 08:04:07 EST


Add a write memory barrier to make sure descriptors prepared are actually
written to memory before ringing the doorbell. We have also added the
write memory barrier after ringing the doorbell register so that
controller sees the new request immediately.
