[PATCH 0/2] ring-buffer: Fix a race between readers and resize checks

[Petr Pavlu]

Fix a race between a reader swapping a new reader page into the
ring-buffer from rb_get_reader_page() and the rb_check_pages() check
invoked at the end of the resize operation in ring_buffer_resize().

Note that a similar problem with rb_check_pages() being executed with
concurrent readers looks to exist for ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set()
too. I plan to tackle it in a separate series.

  ring-buffer: Correct stale comments related to non-consuming readers
  ring-buffer: Fix a race between readers and resize checks
