Marco Elver ea6588abcc kcsan: Turn report_filterlist_lock into a raw_spinlock 
[ Upstream commit 59458fa4dd ]

Ran Xiaokai reports that with a KCSAN-enabled PREEMPT_RT kernel, we can see
splats like:

| BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48
| in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/1

|  </IRQ>

On a detected data race, KCSAN's reporting logic checks if it should
filter the report. That list is protected by the report_filterlist_lock
*non-raw* spinlock which may sleep on RT kernels.

Since KCSAN may report data races in any context, convert it to a
raw_spinlock.

This requires being careful about when to allocate memory for the filter
list itself which can be done via KCSAN's debugfs interface. Concurrent
modification of the filter list via debugfs should be rare: the chosen
strategy is to optimistically pre-allocate memory before the critical
section and discard if unused.

README 

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.
