arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations using asm-generic/barrier.h 2015-10-28T15:37:39+00:00 Peter Zijlstra peterz@infradead.org 2013-11-06T13:57:36+00:00 35377f1656fdb8fba54c70eb4d27bf16356b1468 commit 93ea02bb84354370e51de803a9405f171f3edf88 upstream. We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of asm-generic/barrier.h. Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier definitions and fills out the rest with defaults. There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to their unconventional nop() implementation.
