Merge tag 'arm64-mmiowb' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull mmiowb removal from Will Deacon:
"Remove Mysterious Macro Intended to Obscure Weird Behaviours (mmiowb())
Remove mmiowb() from the kernel memory barrier API and instead, for
architectures that need it, hide the barrier inside spin_unlock() when
MMIO has been performed inside the critical section.
The only relatively recent changes have been addressing review
comments on the documentation, which is in a much better shape thanks
to the efforts of Ben and Ingo.
I was initially planning to split this into two pull requests so that
you could run the coccinelle script yourself, however it's been plain
sailing in linux-next so I've just included the whole lot here to keep
things simple"
