Merge tag 'lkmm.2023.02.15a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu
Pull LKMM (Linux Kernel Memory Model) updates from Paul McKenney:
"Documentation updates.
Add read-modify-write sequences, which means that stronger primitives
more consistently result in stronger ordering, while still remaining
in the envelope of the hardware that supports Linux.
Address, data, and control dependencies used to ignore data that was
stored in temporaries. This update extends these dependency chains to
include unmarked intra-thread stores and loads. Note that these
unmarked stores and loads should not be concurrently accessed from
multiple threads, and doing so will cause LKMM to flag such accesses
as data races"
