The rcu_head_after_call_rcu() function reads the rhp->func pointer twice, which can result in a false-positive WARN_ON_ONCE() if the callback were passed to call_rcu() between the two reads. Although racing rcu_head_after_call_rcu() with call_rcu() is to be a dubious use case (the return value is not reliable in that case), intermittent and irreproducible warnings are also quite dubious. This commit therefore uses a single READ_ONCE() to pick up the value of rhp->func once, then tests that value twice, thus guaranteeing consistent processing within rcu_head_after_call_rcu()(). Neverthless, racing rcu_head_after_call_rcu() with call_rcu() is still a dubious use case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
