Recently there was a treewide conversion of ACCESS_ONCE() to
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), but a new use was introduced concurrently by
commit:
1695849735752d2a ("perf mmap: Move perf_mmap and methods to separate mmap.[ch] files")
Let's convert this over to READ_ONCE() so that we can remove the
ACCESS_ONCE() definitions in subsequent patches.

Hi,
Would it be possible for this to be taken as a fixup in an upcoming rc? That
way we should be able to remove the ACCESS_ONCE() definitions prior to v4.15.
Thanks,
Mark.

Woo-hoo! Good to see that your Coccinelle script has already done
its magic! ;-)
