- Remove unused br_prod_bufs member
- Fixup r241037: buf_ring pads br_prod_* and br_cons_* members at 128
bytes, assuming a fixed cache line size for all the architectures.
However, the above mentioned revision broke the padding.
Use explicit padding to the CACHE_LINE_SIZE on the members that
mark the initial new padded sections. Of course, the padding is not
important for performance reasons in the DEBUG_BUFRING case, leaving
br_cons members to share the cache line with br_lock.
- Fixup r244732: by removing incorrectly added membar in
buf_ring_dequeue_sc() where surrounding locking shoud be enough.
- Drastically reduce the number of membar used (pratically reverting
r244732) by switching rmb() in buf_ring_dequeue_mc() and wmb() in
buf_ring_enqueue() to be complete barriers. This, along with
br_prod_bufs departure, should fix ordering issues as explained in
the provided comments.
This patch is not targeted for MFC.
