#1301677 — [PATCH] kvm/s390: drop unpaired smp_mb

From"Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>

Subject[PATCH] kvm/s390: drop unpaired smp_mb
Message-ID<qNCEG-5ih-17@gated-at.bofh.it>
smp_mb on vcpu destroy isn't paired with anything, violating pairing
rules, and seems to be useless.

Drop it.

Untested.
