Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.2 14/76] rq-qos: use a mb for got_token

From: Josef Bacik <josef@...icpanda.com>

[ Upstream commit ac38297f7038cd5b80d66f8809c7bbf5b70031f3 ]

Oleg noticed that our checking of data.got_token is unsafe in the
cleanup case, and should really use a memory barrier.  Use a wmb on the
write side, and a rmb() on the read side.  We don't need one in the main
loop since we're saved by set_current_state().
