Subject: mm/mempool: fix a data race in mempool_free()

mempool_t pool.curr_nr could be accessed concurrently as noticed by
KCSAN,

  <snip>

Since the write is under pool->lock but the read is done as lockless.
Even though the commit 5b990546e334 ("mempool: fix and document
synchronization and memory barrier usage") introduced the smp_wmb() and
smp_rmb() pair to improve the situation, it is adequate to protect it
from data races which could lead to a logic bug, so fix it by adding
READ_ONCE() for the read.
