The barriers were added to the nvme_irq() in commit3a7afd8ee4("nvme-pci: remove the CQ lock for interrupt driven queues") to prevent compiler from doing memory optimization for the variabes that were protected previously by spinlock in nvme_irq() at completion queue processing and with queue head check condition. The variable nvmeq->last_cq_head from those checks was removed in the commitf6c4d97b0d("nvme/pci: Remove last_cq_head") that was not allwing poll queues from mistakenly triggering the spurious interrupt detection. Remove the barriers which were protecting the updates to the variables.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
