[PATCH v2] mm/huge_memory: mark racy access on huge_anon_orders_always

From: xu.xin16
Date: Tue May 14 2024 - 22:58:32 EST


From: Ran Xiaokai <ran.xiaokai@xxxxxxxxxx>

huge_anon_orders_always is accessed lockless, it is better
to use the READ_ONCE() wrapper. This is not fixing any visible
bug, hopefully this can cease some KCSAN complains in the future.
Also do that for huge_anon_orders_madvise.
