Subject: [PATCH] scsi: ipr: Eliminate duplicate barriers

References: FATE#326436
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc3
Git-commit: f2233a33dc1fef4aa30dc11e4c676637bf358c3d

Driver does both wmb() and writel(). The latter already has a barrier
on some architectures like arm64. This ends up with CPU observing two
barriers back to back before executing the register write.

Drivers should generally assume that the barrier implied by writel() is
sufficient for ordering DMA. Remove the extraneous wmb() before it.
