[PATCH 4.9 015/264] random: reorder READ_ONCE() in get_random_uXX

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

 



From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 72e5c740f6335e27253b8ff64d23d00337091535 upstream.

Avoid the READ_ONCE in commit 4a072c71f49b ("random: silence compiler
warnings and fix race") if we can leave the function after
arch_get_random_XXX().
