[PATCH] Fix speedstep-smi assembly bug in speedstep_smi_ownership
Fix bug identified by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>: the `out' instruction depends upon the state of memory_data[], so we need to tell gcc that before executing it. (The opcode, not gcc). Fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5553 Thanks to Antonio Ospite <ospite@studenti.unina.it> for testing. Cc: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
