[PATCH -next] mm/util: annotate an intentional data race

[Qian Cai]

"vm_committed_as.count" could be accessed concurrently as reported by
KCSAN,

 read to 0xffffffff923164f8 of 8 bytes by task 1268 on cpu 38:
  __vm_enough_memory+0x43/0x280 mm/util.c:801
  mmap_region+0x1b2/0xb90 mm/mmap.c:1726
  do_mmap+0x45c/0x700
  vm_mmap_pgoff+0xc0/0x130
  vm_mmap+0x71/0x90
  elf_map+0xa1/0x1b0
  load_elf_binary+0x9de/0x2180
  search_binary_handler+0xd8/0x2b0
  __do_execve_file+0xb61/0x1080
  __x64_sys_execve+0x5f/0x70
  do_syscall_64+0x91/0xb47
  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe

 write to 0xffffffff923164f8 of 8 bytes by task 1265 on cpu 41:
  percpu_counter_add_batch+0x83/0xd0 lib/percpu_counter.c:91
  exit_mmap+0x178/0x220 include/linux/mman.h:68
  mmput+0x10e/0x270
  flush_old_exec+0x572/0xfe0
  load_elf_binary+0x467/0x2180
  search_binary_handler+0xd8/0x2b0
  __do_execve_file+0xb61/0x1080
  __x64_sys_execve+0x5f/0x70
  do_syscall_64+0x91/0xb47
  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe

The warning is almost impossible to trigger according to the commit
82f71ae4a2b8 ("mm: catch memory commitment underflow") but leave it for
now to catch any possible unbalanced vm_unacct_memory() in the future.
Since only the read is operating as lockless, mark it as an intentional
data race using the data_race() macro.
