+Subject: [PATCH] vfio/fsl-mc: Improve send mc-command and read response
+
+Actually there is no ordering need when reading response
+from mc-portal. Similarly when writing the mc-command,
+ordering needed before command is submitted.
+
+This patch removes un-necessary barriers, response is read
+relaxed and maintain ordering when submit command. This also
+fixes compilation issue with newer kernel.
