srcu: Hold srcu_struct ->lock when updating ->srcu_gp_seq
A read of the srcu_struct structure's ->srcu_gp_seq field should not need READ_ONCE() when that structure's ->lock is held. Except that this lock is not always held when updating this field. This commit therefore acquires the lock around updates and removes a now-unneeded READ_ONCE(). This data race was reported by KCSAN. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> [ paulmck: Switch from READ_ONCE() to lock per Peter Zilstra question. ] Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org>
