From 8ad7b378d0d016309014cae0f640434bca7b5e11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Davidlohr Bueso Date: Tue, 9 Feb 2016 11:15:13 -0800 Subject: futex: Rename barrier references in ordering guarantees Ingo suggested we rename how we reference barriers A and B regarding futex ordering guarantees. This patch replaces, for both barriers, MB (A) with smp_mb(); (A), such that: - We explicitly state that the barriers are SMP, and - We standardize how we reference these across futex.c helping readers follow what barrier does what and where.
