[PATCH] drm/fb-helper: Reduce READ_ONCE(master) to lockless_dereference

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We are only documenting that the read is outside of the lock, and do not
require strict ordering on the operation. In this case the more relaxed
lockless_dereference() will suffice.
