every change can be read
It's only useful when the compiler cannot know the change, for example
it's changed by the hardware or another thread.
And in the Linux kernel memory model for the hardware change you should
use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE instead (they are actually wrappers of volatile
so in the kernel you should almost never need to directly use volatile),
for the change from another thread using volatile is just wrong and you
should use some atomic or locked operation instead.
See
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/volatile-considered-harmful.html.
In this case I'd like to ask first: why won't a simple addr += cdesc-
linesz * cdesc->sets * cdesc->ways * 3 work? Which value(s) of addr,cdesc, or cdesc->{linesz,sets,ways} may change w/o the compiler's
knowledge?

If the problem is the compiler may optimize it to cdesc->ways * 3 *
cdesc->sets * cdesc->linesz, unknowing cdesc->ways etc may magically
change, you should use READ_ONCE(cdesc->ways) etc.
I.e. use READ_ONCE on the expression which may magically change,
instead
of hacking addr. addr won't magically change.
