    locking/atomics, fs/dcache: Convert ACCESS_ONCE() to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() · 66702eb5
    Mark Rutland 提交于
    For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
    preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
    former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
    ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't currently harmful.
    
    However, for some features it is necessary to instrument reads and
    writes separately, which is not possible with ACCESS_ONCE(). This
    distinction is critical to correct operation.
    
    It's possible to transform the bulk of kernel code using the Coccinelle
    script below. However, this doesn't handle comments, leaving references
    to ACCESS_ONCE() instances which have been removed. As a preparatory
    step, this patch converts the dcache code and comments to use
    {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() consistently.
