"vm_committed_as.count" could be accessed concurrently as reported by
KCSAN,
read to 0xffffffff923164f8 of 8 bytes by task 1268 on cpu 38:
__vm_enough_memory+0x43/0x280 mm/util.c:801
mmap_region+0x1b2/0xb90 mm/mmap.c:1726

write to 0xffffffff923164f8 of 8 bytes by task 1265 on cpu 41:
percpu_counter_add_batch+0x83/0xd0 lib/percpu_counter.c:91
exit_mmap+0x178/0x220 include/linux/mman.h:68

__x64_sys_execve+0x5f/0x70
do_syscall_64+0x91/0xb47
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe
The warning is almost impossible to trigger according to the commit
82f71ae4a2b8 ("mm: catch memory commitment underflow") but leave it for
now to catch any possible unbalanced vm_unacct_memory() in the future.
Since only the read is operating as lockless, mark it as an intentional
data race using the data_race() macro.
