[PATCH tip/core/rcu 12/21] lib/assoc_array: Remove smp_read_barrier_depends()

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Fri Dec 01 2017 - 14:56:17 EST


Now that smp_read_barrier_depends() is implied by READ_ONCE(), the several
smp_read_barrier_depends() calls may be removed from lib/assoc_array.c.
This commit makes this change and marks the READ_ONCE() calls that head
address dependencies.
