[PATCH -next] mm/swap_state: mark an intentional data race

From: Qian Cai

swap_cache_info.find_total could be accessed concurrently as noticed by
KCSAN,

BUG: KCSAN: data-race in lookup_swap_cache / lookup_swap_cache

write to 0xffffffff85517318 of 8 bytes by task 94138 on cpu 101:
lookup_swap_cache+0x12e/0x460
lookup_swap_cache at mm/swap_state.c:322
do_swap_page+0x112/0xeb0
__handle_mm_fault+0xc7a/0xd00
handle_mm_fault+0xfc/0x2f0
do_page_fault+0x263/0x6f9
page_fault+0x34/0x40

read to 0xffffffff85517318 of 8 bytes by task 91655 on cpu 100:
lookup_swap_cache+0x117/0x460

shmem_swapin_page+0xc7/0x9e0

Reported by Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer on:
CPU: 100 PID: 91655 Comm: systemd-journal Tainted: G W O L 5.5.0-next-20200204+ #6
Hardware name: HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen10/ProLiant DL385 Gen10, BIOS A40 07/10/2019

Both the read and write are done as lockless. Since INC_CACHE_INFO() is
only used for swap_cache_info.find_total and
swap_cache_info.find_success which both are information counters, even
if any of them missed a few incremental due to data races, it will be
harmless, so just mark it as an intentional data race using the
data_race() macro.

While at it, fix a checkpatch.pl warning,

WARNING: Single statement macros should not use a do {} while (0) loop
