From 80dcf60e6b97c7363971e7a0a788d8484d35f8a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2010 16:57:45 -0700 Subject: rcu: apply TINY_PREEMPT_RCU read-side speedup to TREE_PREEMPT_RCU Replace one of the ACCESS_ONCE() calls in each of __rcu_read_lock() and __rcu_read_unlock() with barrier() as suggested by Steve Rostedt in order to avoid the potential compiler-optimization-induced bug noted by Mathieu Desnoyers.
