Subject: lib/stackdepot: annotate racy slab_index accesses
Date: Mon, 30 Jan 2023 21:49:40 +0100
Accesses to slab_index are protected by slab_lock everywhere except in a
sanity check in stack_depot_fetch. The read access there can race with
the write access in depot_alloc_stack.
Use WRITE/READ_ONCE() to annotate the racy accesses.
As the sanity check is only used to print a warning in case of a violation
of the stack depot interface usage, it does not make a lot of sense to use
proper synchronization.
