[PATCH 3.11 240/272] s390/vtime: correct idle time calculation

[Luis Henriques]

3.11.10.1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4560e7c3317c7a2b370e36dadd3a3bac2ed70818 upstream.

Use the ACCESS_ONCE macro for both accesses to idle->sequence in the
loops to calculate the idle time. If only one access uses the macro,
the compiler is free to cache the value for the second access which
can cause endless loops.
