+Subject: [PATCH] bus: mvebu-mbus: do not set WIN_CTRL_SYNCBARRIER on non
+ io-coherent platforms.
+Origin: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.stable/137371
+
+Commit a0b5cd4ac2d6 ("bus: mvebu-mbus: use automatic I/O
+synchronization barriers") enabled the usage of automatic I/O
+synchronization barriers by enabling bit WIN_CTRL_SYNCBARRIER in the
+control registers of MBus windows, but on non io-coherent platforms
+(orion5x, kirkwood and dove) the WIN_CTRL_SYNCBARRIER bit in
+the window control register is either reserved (all windows except 6
+and 7) or enables read-only protection (windows 6 and 7).
