Subject[PATCH 5/5] bus: mhi: host: Remove redundant dma_wmb() before ctx wp update
Date
The endpoint device will only read the context wp when the host rings
the doorbell. And moreover the doorbell write is using writel(). This
guarantess that the prior writes will be completed before ringing
doorbell.

So there is no need of an additional dma_wmb() to order the coherent
memory writes w.r.t each other. Even if the writes gets reordered, it
won't affect the endpoint device.
