stable inclusion from stable-5.10.80 commit 3965cc2e9fddcc57e23c9bfd133bda4711ea6343 bugzilla: 185821 https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4L7CG
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
[ Upstream commit 9bfe38e064af5decba2ffce66a2958ab8b10eaa4 ]
This is essentially exactly following the dma_wmb()/dma_rmb() usage instructions in Documentation/memory-barriers.txt.
The theoretical races here are:
1. DXE (the DMA Transfer Engine in the Wi-Fi subsystem) seeing the dxe->ctrl & WCN36xx_DXE_CTRL_VLD write before the dxe->dst_addr_l write, thus performing DMA into the wrong address.
2. CPU reading dxe->dst_addr_l before DXE unsets dxe->ctrl & WCN36xx_DXE_CTRL_VLD. This should generally be harmless since DXE doesn't write dxe->dst_addr_l (no risk of freeing the wrong skb).
