[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] kni: remove non-C11 path from FIFO sync

[Joyce Kong]

Non-C11 path was meant to not break build with GCC version < 4.7(when
C11 atomics were introduced), while now minimum GCC version supported
by DPDK has been 4.9, C11 atomics support in compiler is no longer a
problem. So non-C11 path can be removed.
