[PATCH bpf-next 1/2] libbpf: xsk: remove linux/compiler.h header

From: Björn Töpel <hidden>
Date: 2021-03-10 08:10:38
Also in: bpf
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [library] (libbpf), the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Linus Torvalds

From: Björn Töpel <redacted>

In commit 291471dd1559 ("libbpf, xsk: Add libbpf_smp_store_release
libbpf_smp_load_acquire") linux/compiler.h was added as a dependency
to xsk.h, which is the user-facing API. This makes it harder for
userspace application to consume the library. Here the header
inclusion is removed, and instead {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() is added
explicitly.
