[Xen-ia64-devel] [PATCH] xen: Use wmb instead of rmb in xen_evtchn_do_upcall().

[Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This patch is ported one from 534:77db69c38249 of linux-2.6.18-xen.hg.
Use wmb instead of rmb to enforce ordering between
evtchn_upcall_pending and evtchn_pending_sel stores
in xen_evtchn_do_upcall().
