Subject: [PATCH 5.6 015/254] sched/vtime: Prevent unstable evaluation of WARN(vtime->state)

From: Chris Wilson <chris@...is-wilson.co.uk>

[ Upstream commit f1dfdab694eb3838ac26f4b73695929c07d92a33 ]

As the vtime is sampled under loose seqcount protection by kcpustat, the
vtime fields may change as the code flows. Where logic dictates a field
has a static value, use a READ_ONCE.
