[PATCH] sbitmap: use READ_ONCE to access map->word

From: linke li
Date: Fri Apr 26 2024 - 06:40:09 EST


In __sbitmap_queue_get_batch(), map->word is read several times, and
update atomically using atomic_long_try_cmpxchg(). But the first two read
of map->word is not protected.

This patch moves the statement val = READ_ONCE(map->word) forward,
eliminating unprotected accesses to map->word within the function.
It is aimed at reducing the number of benign races reported by KCSAN in
order to focus future debugging effort on harmful races.
