[PATCH] mm/kmemleak: silence KCSAN splats in checksum

[PATCH] mm/kmemleak: silence KCSAN splats in checksum

[Qian Cai]

Even if KCSAN is disabled for kmemleak, update_checksum() could still
call crc32() (which is outside of kmemleak.c) to dereference
object->pointer. Thus, the value of object->pointer could be accessed
concurrently as noticed by KCSAN,

 BUG: KCSAN: data-race in crc32_le_base / do_raw_spin_lock

 write to 0xffffb0ea683a7d50 of 4 bytes by task 23575 on cpu 12:
  do_raw_spin_lock+0x114/0x200
  debug_spin_lock_after at kernel/locking/spinlock_debug.c:91
  (inlined by) do_raw_spin_lock at kernel/locking/spinlock_debug.c:115
  _raw_spin_lock+0x40/0x50
  __handle_mm_fault+0xa9e/0xd00
  handle_mm_fault+0xfc/0x2f0
  do_page_fault+0x263/0x6f9
  page_fault+0x34/0x40

 read to 0xffffb0ea683a7d50 of 4 bytes by task 839 on cpu 60:
  crc32_le_base+0x67/0x350
  crc32_le_base+0x67/0x350:
  crc32_body at lib/crc32.c:106
  (inlined by) crc32_le_generic at lib/crc32.c:179
  (inlined by) crc32_le at lib/crc32.c:197
  kmemleak_scan+0x528/0xd90
  update_checksum at mm/kmemleak.c:1172
  (inlined by) kmemleak_scan at mm/kmemleak.c:1497
  kmemleak_scan_thread+0xcc/0xfa
  kthread+0x1e0/0x200
  ret_from_fork+0x27/0x50

If a shattered value was returned due to a data race, it will be
corrected in the next scan. Thus, let KCSAN ignore all reads in the
region to silence KCSAN in case the write side is non-atomic.
