So, since the final v4.12 release is so close, I've put the following KASAN 
commits aside into tip:WIP.locking/atomics:

4b47cc154eed: locking/atomic/x86, asm-generic: Add comments for atomic instrumentation
35787d9d7ca4: locking/atomics, asm-generic: Add KASAN instrumentation to atomic operations
68c1ed1fdb0a: kasan: Allow kasan_check_read/write() to accept pointers to volatiles
f1c3049f6729: locking/atomic/x86: Switch atomic.h to use atomic-instrumented.h
d079eebb3958: locking/atomic: Add asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h
007d185b4462: locking/atomic/x86: Use 's64 *' for 'old' argument of atomic64_try_cmpxchg()
ba1c9f83f633: locking/atomic/x86: Un-macro-ify atomic ops implementation

(Note, I had to rebase these freshly, to decouple them from a refcount_t commit 
that we need.)

and won't send them to Linus unless the cleanups are done and acked by Thomas.

Thanks,

	Ingo
