Subject: net: Add memory barriers to prevent possible race in byte queue limits
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b37c0fbe3f6dfba1f8ad2aed47fb40578a254635;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

net: Add memory barriers to prevent possible race in byte queue limits

This change adds a memory barrier to the byte queue limit code to address a
possible race as has been seen in the past with the
netif_stop_queue/netif_wake_queue logic.
