Marco Elver 44b97dccb2 compiler.h: Remove data_race() and unnecessary checks from {READ,WRITE}_ONCE()
The volatile accesses no longer need to be wrapped in data_race()
because compilers that emit instrumentation distinguishing volatile
accesses are required for KCSAN.

Consequently, the explicit kcsan_check_atomic*() are no longer required
either since the compiler emits instrumentation distinguishing the
volatile accesses.

Finally, simplify __READ_ONCE_SCALAR() and remove __WRITE_ONCE_SCALAR().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
