Indeed, smp_wmb is always wrong for barriers separating DMA writes.

I wonder if these should be changed to:

$ git grep smp_wmb drivers/crypto/
drivers/crypto/caam/jr.c:       smp_wmb();
drivers/crypto/cavium/cpt/cptvf_reqmanager.c:   smp_wmb();
drivers/crypto/hisilicon/qm.c:  smp_wmb();
drivers/crypto/marvell/octeontx/otx_cptvf_reqmgr.c:     smp_wmb();
drivers/crypto/marvell/octeontx2/otx2_cptpf_mbox.c:             smp_wmb();
drivers/crypto/marvell/octeontx2/otx2_cptpf_mbox.c:     smp_wmb();
drivers/crypto/marvell/octeontx2/otx2_cptpf_mbox.c:             smp_wmb();
drivers/crypto/marvell/octeontx2/otx2_cptpf_mbox.c:     smp_wmb();
drivers/crypto/talitos.c:       smp_wmb();
drivers/crypto/talitos.c:               smp_wmb();
$
