Subject: Remove workaround for unimmunized rcu_dereference from mce_log()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3806204ca9017a2cf2d849430f26e2b62666f5b2;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

Remove workaround for unimmunized rcu_dereference from mce_log()

Remove the rmb() from mce_log(), since the immunized version of
rcu_dereference() makes it unnecessary.
