From: Tao Cui <[email protected]> blkg_rwstat_recursive_sum() reads pos_blkg->online without the queue lock that its doc comment requires, since blkcg_print_blkgs() stopped holding it in 56cc24f59c14. Concurrent blkg_create/destroy flips ->online, tripping KCSAN. The race is harmless (RCU-protected, stale online only causes minor stat noise). Use data_race() to annotate the intentional lockless read. Also update the stale doc comment that still requires the queue lock. Reviewed-by: Yu Kuai <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Tao Cui <[email protected]> --- Changes in v2: - Update the stale kernel-doc comment that still mandates the queue lock.
