I think it's implied with atomic64_read().
Yes it would be. I was merely trying to point out that
last = ACCESS_ONCE(last_value);
Is a narrower way of writing:
last = last_value;
barrier();
In that it need not clobber all memory locations and makes it instantly
clear what we want the barrier for.
Oh yes, just trying to avoid a patch with both atomic64_read() and
ACCESS_ONCE().
