[PATCH] drivers,crypto/cavium: Fix barrier barrier usage after atomic_set()

From: Davidlohr Bueso
Date: Tue Oct 15 2019 - 12:18:21 EST


Because it is not a Rmw operation, atomic_set() is not serialized,
and therefore the 'upgradable' smp_mb__after_atomic() call after
the atomic_set() is completely bogus (not to mention the comment
could also use some love, but that's a different matter).

This patch replaces these with smp_mb(), which seems like the
original intent of when the code was written.
