bio: fix improper use of smp_mb__before_atomic()
commit f381c6a4bd0ae0fde2d6340f1b9bb0f58d915de6 upstream. This barrier only applies to the read-modify-write operations; in particular, it does not apply to the atomic_set() primitive. Replace the barrier with an smp_mb(). Fixes: dac56212e8127 ("bio: skip atomic inc/dec of ->bi_cnt for most use cases") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: "Paul E.
