Merge tag 'kcsan.2024.05.10a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu
Pull kcsan update from Paul McKenney:
"Introduce __data_racy type qualifier
This adds a __data_racy type qualifier that enables kernel developers
to inform KCSAN that a given variable is a shared variable without
needing to mark each and every access.
This allows pre-KCSAN code to be correctly (if approximately)
instrumented withh very little effort, and also provides people
reading the code a clear indication that the variable is in fact
shared.
In addition, it permits incremental transition to per-access KCSAN
marking, so that (for example) a given subsystem can be transitioned
one variable at a time, while avoiding large numbers of KCSAN warnings
during this transition"
