[PATCH 4/9] locking/qrwlock: implement queue_write_unlock using smp_store_release

From: Will Deacon <hidden>
Date: 2015-07-07 17:24:20
Also in: linux-arch
Subsystem: generic include/asm header files, the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Arnd Bergmann, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

smp_store_release supports byte accesses, so use that in writer unlock
and remove the conditional macro override.
