[PATCH v2 3/5] thermal: trip: Use READ_ONCE() for lockless access to trip properties

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Tue May 28 2024 - 12:54:48 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

When accessing trip temperature and hysteresis without locking, it is
better to use READ_ONCE() to prevent compiler optimizations possibly
affecting the read from being applied.

Of course, for the READ_ONCE() to be effective, WRITE_ONCE() needs to
be used when updating their values.
