The vhost_scsi.ko code used several atomic variables at one point.
Later they were dropped or converted to regular ints protected by a
mutex.
The commit that made these changes left an unused smp_mb__after_atomic()
in vhost_scsi_set_endpoint(). It was previously used after incrementing
vhost_scsi->vhost_ref_cnt but this field has been dropped:
- atomic_inc(&vs->vhost_ref_cnt);
smp_mb__after_atomic_inc();
