6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Qiang Zhang <qiang4.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 82634d7e24271698e50a3ec811e5f50de790a65f ]
memtest failed to find bad memory when compiled with clang. So use
{WRITE,READ}_ONCE to access memory to avoid compiler over optimization.
