From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit aacd467c0a576e5e44d2de4205855dc0fe43f6fb ] tcp_md5sig_pool_populated can be read while another thread changes its value. The race has no consequence because allocations are protected with tcp_md5sig_mutex. This patch adds READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() to document the race and silence KCSAN.
