Subject: [net-next 9/9] ixgbe: Drop unnecessary call to rcu_barrier
From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...hat.com>
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.
