[PATCH v2 1/1] context_tracking: Use arch_atomic_read() in __ct_state for KASAN

[Joel Fernandes (Google)]

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx>

Context tracking's __ct_state() function can be invoked from noinstr state
where RCU is not watching.  This means that its use of atomic_read()
causes KASAN to invoke the non-noinstr __kasan_check_read() function
from the noinstr function __ct_state().  This is problematic because
someone tracing the __kasan_check_read() function could get a nasty
surprise because of RCU not watching.

This commit therefore replaces the __ct_state() function's use of
atomic_read() with arch_atomic_read(), which KASAN does not attempt to
add instrumention to.
