Stefan Bühler 115e12e58d io_uring: remove unnecessary barrier before reading cq head
The memory operations before reading cq head are unrelated and we
don't care about their order.

Document that the control dependency in combination with READ_ONCE and
WRITE_ONCE forms a barrier we need.

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 Restructured Text 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.
