4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "hpreg@xxxxxxxxxx" <hpreg@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit f3002c1374fb2367c9d8dbb28852791ef90d2bac ]
The gen bits must be read first from (resp. written last to) DMA memory.
The proper way to enforce this on Linux is to call dma_rmb() (resp.
dma_wmb()).
