[ Upstream commit b54ef37b1c ]
Current code use dma_wmb() to ensure Rx/Tx descriptors are visible
to device before writing to doorbell.
However, these dma_wmb() are wrong and unnecessary. Therefore,
they should be removed.
iowrite32be() called from gve_rx_write_doorbell()/gve_tx_put_doorbell()
should guaratee that all previous writes to WB/UC memory is visible to
device before the write done by iowrite32be().
E.g. On ARM64, iowrite32be() calls __iowmb() which expands to dma_wmb()
and only then calls __raw_writel().

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.
