[PATCH 0/2] A couple of qspinlock fixes
From: Will Deacon
Date: Tue Feb 13 2018 - 08:23:15 EST
Hi all,
Here are a couple of fixes for qspinlock issues I've found by code
inspection whilst investigating the possibility of enabling this for
arm64. The first patch fixes a problem with unusual hardware re-ordering
whilst the second fixes a problem with unusual compiler re-ordering.
Cheers,
Will
