Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 15/30] rcu: Add *_ONCE() to rcu_data ->rcu_forced_tick

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...nel.org>

The rcu_data structure's ->rcu_forced_tick field is read locklessly, so
this commit adds WRITE_ONCE() to all updates and READ_ONCE() to all
lockless reads.

This data race was reported by KCSAN.  Not appropriate for backporting
due to failure being unlikely.
