Subject[PATCH 5.10 09/57] ibmvnic: Ensure that CRQ entry read are correctly ordered
Date
From: Lijun Pan <ljp@linux.ibm.com>

commit e41aec79e62fa50f940cf222d1e9577f14e149dc upstream.

Ensure that received Command-Response Queue (CRQ) entries are
properly read in order by the driver. dma_rmb barrier has
been added before accessing the CRQ descriptor to ensure
the entire descriptor is read before processing.

Fixes: 032c5e82847a ("Driver for IBM System i/p VNIC protocol")
