Message-ID: <20150330164138.1335.47547.stgit@ahduyck-vm-fedora22> Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2015 09:41:38 -0700 From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...hat.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com Subject: [net-next PATCH] ixgbe: Drop unnecessary call to rcu_barrier The ixgbe driver hasn't used call_rcu to free the rings for some time now. Since that is the case the call to rcu_barrier can be dropped since calls to kfree_rcu don't require it.
