[PATCH v2] mm/huge_memory: mark racy access on huge_anon_orders_always
Posted by xu.xin16@zte.com.cn 1 year, 9 months ago
From: Ran Xiaokai <ran.xiaokai@zte.com.cn>

huge_anon_orders_always is accessed lockless, it is better
to use the READ_ONCE() wrapper. This is not fixing any visible
bug, hopefully this can cease some KCSAN complains in the future.
Also do that for huge_anon_orders_madvise.
