From: Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit c30fa83b49897e708a52e122dd10616a52a4c82b upstream. To avoid any compiler "weirdness" when accessing page table entries which are concurrently modified by the HW, let's use WRITE_ONCE() macro (commit 20a004e7b017 ("arm64: mm: Use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE when accessing page tables") gives a great explanation with more details).
