[PATCH 16/18] lib/stackdepot: annotate racy slab_index accesses

[andrey . konovalov]

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx>

Accesses to slab_index are protected by slab_lock everywhere except
in a sanity check in stack_depot_fetch. The read access there can race
with the write access in depot_alloc_stack.

Use WRITE/READ_ONCE() to annotate the racy accesses.

As the sanity check is only used to print a warning in case of a
violation of the stack depot interface usage, it does not make a lot
of sense to use proper synchronization.
