    The prev->next pointer can be accessed concurrently as noticed by KCSAN:
    
     write (marked) to 0xffff9d3370dbbe40 of 8 bytes by task 3294 on cpu 107:
      osq_lock+0x25f/0x350
      osq_wait_next at kernel/locking/osq_lock.c:79
      (inlined by) osq_lock at kernel/locking/osq_lock.c:185
      rwsem_optimistic_spin
      <snip>
    
     read to 0xffff9d3370dbbe40 of 8 bytes by task 3398 on cpu 100:
      osq_lock+0x196/0x350
      osq_lock at kernel/locking/osq_lock.c:157
      rwsem_optimistic_spin
      <snip>
    
    Since the write only stores NULL to prev->next and the read tests if
    prev->next equals to this_cpu_ptr(&osq_node). Even if the value is
    shattered, the code is still working correctly. Thus, mark it as an
    intentional data race using the data_race() macro.
