[PATCH 1/2] iosched: fix typo and barrier()
On rmmod path, cfq/as waits to make sure all io-contexts was
freed. However, it's using complete(), not wait_for_completion().
I think barrier() is not enough in here. To avoid the following case,
this patch replaces barrier() with smb_wmb().
cpu0 visibility cpu1
[ioc_gnone=NULL,ioc_count=1]
ioc_gnone = &all_gone NULL,ioc_count=1
atomic_read(&ioc_count) NULL,ioc_count=1
wait_for_completion() NULL,ioc_count=0 atomic_sub_and_test()
NULL,ioc_count=0 if ( && ioc_gone)
[ioc_gone==NULL,
so doesn't call complete()]
&all_gone,ioc_count=0
