Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
ccf1e0045e
Introduce struct scsi_vpd for the VPD page length, data and the RCU head
that will be used to free the VPD data. Use kfree_rcu() instead of
kfree() to free VPD data. Move the VPD buffer pointer check inside the
RCU read lock in the sysfs code. Only annotate pointers that are shared
across threads with __rcu. Use rcu_dereference() when dereferencing an
RCU pointer. This patch suppresses about twenty sparse complaints about
the vpd_pg8[03] pointers. This patch also fixes a race condition, namely
that updating of the VPD pointers and length variables in struct
scsi_device was not atomic with reference to the code reading these
variables. See also "Does the update code tolerate concurrent accesses?"
in Documentation/RCU/checklist.txt.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
