The patch titled
     Subject: compiler.h: fix barrier_data() on clang
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     compilerh-fix-barrier_data-on-clang.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Arvind Sankar <nivedita@alum.mit.edu>
Subject: compiler.h: fix barrier_data() on clang

Commit 815f0ddb346c ("include/linux/compiler*.h: make compiler-*.h
mutually exclusive") neglected to copy barrier_data() from compiler-gcc.h
into compiler-clang.h.  The definition in compiler-gcc.h was really to
work around clang's more aggressive optimization, so this broke
barrier_data() on clang, and consequently memzero_explicit() as well.

For example, this results in at least the memzero_explicit() call in
lib/crypto/sha256.c:sha256_transform() being optimized away by clang.

Fix this by moving the definition of barrier_data() into compiler.h.

Also move the gcc/clang definition of barrier() into compiler.h,
__memory_barrier() is icc-specific (and barrier() is already defined using
it in compiler-intel.h) and doesn't belong in compiler.h.
