The standard kernel read_seqcount_retry() includes smp_rmb()\nto ensure that all data reads complete before the counter is re-checked.\n\nWithout this barrier, on weakly-ordered architectures (ARM, POWER),\nthe CPU may reorder field reads past the second counter check, making\nthe retry logic ineffective: it could observe a consistent counter pair\nwhile reading fields that have been concurrently modified by the writer.\n\nAdd smp_rmb() before the second counter check to order the field reads\nahead of it, matching the barrier semantics of the standard seqcount\nread-side.  The begin-side smp_load_acquire() already pairs with the\nsmp_store_release() in nfsd_dispatch(); with the smp_rmb() now ordering\nthe field reads, the retry check no longer needs acquire semantics
