The functions clear_bit and set_bit do not imply a memory barrier, thus it may be possible that the waitqueue_active function (which does not take any locks) is moved before clear_bit and it could miss a wakeup event. Fix this bug by adding a memory barrier after clear_bit. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
