From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit bdb0cca0d11060fce8a8a44588ac1470c25d62bc ] There are several ->trc_reader_nesting data races that are too low-probability for KCSAN to notice, but which will happen sooner or later. This commit therefore marks these accesses, and comments one that cannot race. Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # 5.10.x Signed-off-by: Paul E.
