Subject: [PATCH] iseries_veth: Replace lock-protected atomic with an ordinary variable
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b08bd5c0a3110f143faeef9cd057d9d8ff2f0714;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

[PATCH] iseries_veth: Replace lock-protected atomic with an ordinary variable

The iseries_veth driver uses atomic ops to manipulate the in_use field of
one of its per-connection structures. However all references to the
flag occur while the connection's lock is held, so the atomic ops aren't
necessary.
