From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
This reverts commit fa7d81bb3c269a2ee38b6e4d569d9eb8be1a78ad.
As Peter explained:
[...] lockless_dereference() is _stronger_ than READ_ONCE(), not weaker.
[...]
Also, clue is in the name: 'dereference', you don't actually dereference
the pointer here, only load it.
My next patch breaks compile on this, because it assumes you want to
deference and thus also need the struct type visible (which it isn't
here), so revert it.
