Subject[PATCH 3.4 157/214] drivers: hv: switch to use mb() instead of smp_mb()
Date
3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>

commit 35848f68b07df3f917cb13fc3c134718669f569b upstream.

Even if guest were compiled without SMP support, it could not assume that host
wasn't. So switch to use mb() instead of smp_mb() to force memory barriers for
UP guest.
