Drivers: hv: vmbus: Remove the lock field from the vmbus_channel struct
The spinlock is (now) *not used to protect test-and-set accesses to attributes of the structure or sc_list operations. There is, AFAICT, a distinct lack of {WRITE,READ}_ONCE()s in the handling of channel->state, but the changes below do not seem to make things "worse". ;-) Signed-off-by: Andrea Parri (Microsoft) <parri.andrea@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200617164642.37393-9-parri.andrea@gmail.com Reviewed-by: Michael Kelley <mikelley@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Wei Liu <wei.liu@kernel.org>
