[ Upstream commit67d2518604] s_mb_buddies_generated gets used later in this patch series to determine if the cr 0 and cr 1 optimziations should be performed or not. Currently, s_mb_buddies_generated is protected under a spin_lock. In the allocation path, it is better if we don't depend on the lock and instead read the value atomically. In order to do that, we drop s_bal_lock altogether and we convert the only two protected fields by it s_mb_buddies_generated and s_mb_generation_time to atomic type.

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.
