[PATCH v3 2/2] MIPS: io: add a barrier after register read in readX()
From: Sinan Kaya
Date: Tue Apr 03 2018 - 08:55:27 EST
While a barrier is present in writeX() function before the register write,
a similar barrier is missing in the readX() function after the register
read. This could allow memory accesses following readX() to observe
stale data.
