mainlining shenanigans
f8f7e0fb22
Fix a misplaced barrier in call_decode. The struct rpc_rqst is modified
as follows by xprt_complete_rqst:
req->rq_private_buf.len = copied;
/* Ensure all writes are done before we update */
/* req->rq_reply_bytes_recvd */
smp_wmb();
req->rq_reply_bytes_recvd = copied;
And currently read as follows by call_decode:
smp_rmb(); // misplaced
if (!req->rq_reply_bytes_recvd)
goto out;
req->rq_rcv_buf.len = req->rq_private_buf.len;
This patch places the smp_rmb after the if to ensure that
rq_reply_bytes_recvd and rq_private_buf.len are read in order.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
