Subject[PATCH 4.14 005/189] MIPS: io: Prevent compiler reordering writeX()
Date
4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sinan Kaya <okaya@codeaurora.org>

[ Upstream commit f6b7aeee8f167409195fbf1364d02988fecad1d0 ]

writeX() has strong ordering semantics with respect to memory updates.
In the absence of a write barrier or a compiler barrier, the compiler
can reorder register and memory update instructions. This breaks the
writeX() API.
