Subject: mm: fix data race in PagePoisoned()
PagePoisoned() accesses page->flags which can be updated concurrently:
| BUG: KCSAN: data-race in next_uptodate_page / unlock_page

| write (marked) to 0xffffea00050f37c0 of 8 bytes by task 1872 on cpu 1:

| CPU: 0 PID: 1873 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 5.11.0-rc4-00001-gf9ce0be71d1f #1
To avoid the compiler tearing or otherwise optimizing the access, use
READ_ONCE() to access flags.
