Subject: [PATCH v3 00/12] Rework READ_ONCE() to improve codegen

Hi everyone,

This is version three of the patches I previously posted for improving
the code generation of READ_ONCE() and moving the minimum GCC version
to 4.8:

RFC: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200110165636.28035-1-will@kernel.org
v2:  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200123153341.19947-1-will@kernel.org

Although v2 was queued up by Peter in -tip, it was found to break the
build for m68k and sparc32. We fixed m68k during the merge window and
I've since posted patches to fix sparc32 here:

  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200414214011.2699-1-will@kernel.org

This series is a refresh on top of 5.7-rc1, the main changes being:

  * Fix another issue where 'const' is assigned to non-const via
    WRITE_ONCE(), this time in the tls code

  * Fix READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() abuse in arm64 checksum code

  * Added Reviewed-bys and Acks from v2

Hopefully this can be considered for 5.8, along with the sparc32 changes.

Cheers,

Will
