[PATCH v5 16/18] kcsan: Rework data_race() so that it can be used by READ_ONCE()

From: Will Deacon
Date: Mon May 11 2020 - 16:43:03 EST


Rework the data_race() macro so that it:

- Accepts expressions which evaluate to a 'const' type
- Attempts to discard volatile qualifiers from scalar types, avoiding
pointless stack spills
- Uses __kcsan_{disable,enable}_current(), allowing its use from code
that is built independently from the kernel, such as the vDSO

This will allow for its use by {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in a subsequent patch.
At the same time, fix-up some weird whitespace issues.
