Caleb Sander Mateos b83db10996 mlx5/core: relax memory barrier in eq_update_ci() 
The memory barrier in eq_update_ci() after the doorbell write is a
significant hot spot in mlx5_eq_comp_int(). Under heavy TCP load, we see
3% of CPU time spent on the mfence instruction.

98df6d5b87 ("net/mlx5: A write memory barrier is sufficient in EQ ci
update") already relaxed the full memory barrier to just a write barrier
in mlx5_eq_update_ci(), which duplicates eq_update_ci(). So replace mb()
with wmb() in eq_update_ci() too.

On strongly ordered architectures, no barrier is actually needed because
the MMIO writes to the doorbell register are guaranteed to appear to the
device in the order they were made. However, the kernel's ordered MMIO
primitive writel() lacks a convenient big-endian interface.
Therefore, we opt to stick with __raw_writel() + a barrier.

README 

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 reStructuredText 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.
