Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 09/15] powerpc: Fix smp_mb__before_spinlock()
From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
Currently, smp_mb__before_spinlock() is defined to be smp_wmb()
in core code, but this is not sufficient on PowerPC. This patch
therefore supplies an override for the generic definition to
strengthen smp_mb__before_spinlock() to smp_mb(), as is needed
on PowerPC.
