live is used to signal to the pagefault thread that the MR is initialized
and ready for use. It should be after the umem is assigned and all other
setup is completed. This prevents races (at least) of the form:
CPU0 CPU1
mlx5_ib_alloc_implicit_mr()
implicit_mr_alloc()
live = 1
imr->umem = umem
num_pending_prefetch_inc()
if (live)
atomic_inc(num_pending_prefetch)
atomic_set(num_pending_prefetch,0) // Overwrites other thread's store
Further, live is being used with SRCU as the 'update' in an
acquire/release fashion, so it can not be read and written raw.
Move all live = 1's to after MR initialization is completed and use
smp_store_release/smp_load_acquire() for manipulating it.
Add a missing live = 0 when an implicit MR child is deleted, before
queuing work to do synchronize_srcu().
The barriers in update_odp_mr() were some broken attempt to create a
acquire/release, but were not even applied consistently and missed the
point, delete it as well.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
