Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] mm: Remove usages of ACCESS_ONCE()

v1->v2:
As suggested by Michal, we can split up the v1 patch into 2 patches.
 
The first patch addresses potentially incorrect usages of ACCESS_ONCE().
 
The second patch is more of a "cleanup" patch to convert the rest of
the ACCESS_ONCE() reads in mm/ to use the new READ_ONCE() API.
 
This makes it a bit easier to backport the fixes to older kernels.
