Since commit76ebbe78f7("locking/barriers: Add implicit smp_read_barrier_depends() to READ_ONCE()") was merged for the 4.15 kernel, it has not been necessary to use smp_read_barrier_depends(). Similarly, commit59ecbbe7b3("locking/barriers: Kill lockless_dereference()") removed lockless_dereference() from the kernel. Since these primitives are no longer part of the kernel, they do not belong in the Linux Kernel Memory Consistency Model. This patch removes them, along with the internal rb-dep relation, and updates the revelant documentation. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
