3.16.75-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Andrea Parri <andrea.parri@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit a0934fd2b1208458e55fc4b48f55889809fce666 upstream. This barrier only applies to the read-modify-write operations; in particular, it does not apply to the atomic_set() primitive. Replace the barrier with an smp_mb().
