sbpcd.c: removes bogus duplicate definition of sbpcd_lock, use of CURRENT (we are using private queue) and call of invalidate_buffers() in ->media_changed() (caller does it itself). That went in a changeset from davej - looks like a merge problem... sr.c: braino in ifdefed printk - s/disk/cd->disk/. Thanks to jejb for spotting that one...

This adds a set of list macros that make handling of list protected by RCU simpler. The interfaces added are - list_add_rcu list_add_tail_rcu - Adds an element by taking care of memory barrier (wmb()). list_del_rcu - Deletes an element but doesn't re-initialize the pointers in the element for supporting RCU based traversal. list_for_each_rcu __list_for_each_rcu - Traversal of RCU protected list - takes care of memory barriers transparently.

This first RCU helper patch adds a read_barrier_depends() primitive to all archs which is NOP for archs that doesn't require an rmb() for data dependent reads when writes are ordered using a wmb(). In reality, only alpha requires an rmb(), the rest are NOPs. It is likely to be necessary in most situations that would use RCU. Please apply. Description : Sometime ago, during a discussion on lock-free lookups, it was agreed that an additional memory barrier interface, read_barrier_depends() that is lighter than an rmb(), is necessary to make sure that data-dependent reads are not re-ordered over this barrier. For many processors, data-dependency enforces order, so this interface is a NOP, but for those that don't (like alpha), it can be a rmb(). For example, the following code would force ordering (the initial value of "a" is zero, "b" is one, and "p" is "&a"): CPU 0 CPU 1 b = 2; memory_barrier(); p = &b; q = p; read_barrier_depends(); d = *q; because the read of "*q" depends on the read of "p" and these two reads should be separated by a read_barrier_depends(). However, the following code, with the same initial values for "a" and "b": CPU 0 CPU 1 a = 2; memory_barrier(); b = 3; y = b; read_barrier_depends(); x = a; does not enforce ordering, since there is no data dependency between the read of "a" and the read of "b". Therefore, on some CPUs, such as Alpha, "y" could be set to 3 and "x" to 0. rmb() needs to be used here, not read_barrier_depends(). The original discussion can be found at - http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=100259422200002&r=1&w=2 Explanation of the need for read_barrier_depends() can be found at http://lse.sf.net/locking/wmbdd.html
