Subject: NFS: Convert nfs_attr_generation_counter into an atomic_long
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ae05f269400533cbb32bfba131ab528d78dffd16;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

NFS: Convert nfs_attr_generation_counter into an atomic_long

The most important property we need from nfs_attr_generation_counter is
monotonicity, which is not guaranteed by the current system of smp memory
barriers. We should convert it to an atomic_long_t, and drop the memory
barriers.
