[PATCH v3 18/18] infiniband: cxgb4: Eliminate duplicate barriers on weakly-ordered archs

From: Sinan Kaya <hidden>
Date: 2018-03-16 16:17:27
Also in: linux-arm-msm, linux-rdma, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: cxgb4 iwarp rnic driver (iw_cxgb4), infiniband subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Potnuri Bharat Teja, Jason Gunthorpe, Leon Romanovsky, Linus Torvalds

Code includes wmb() followed by writel(). writel() already has a barrier on
some architectures like arm64.

This ends up CPU observing two barriers back to back before executing the
register write.

Since code already has an explicit barrier call, changing writel() to
writel_relaxed().
