If nobody complains about the lack of __no_kcsan_or_inline, let's do
it. See comments below.

I suppose, if we say that __no_kcsan_or_inline should just disappear
because '__no_kcsan inline' is now good enough, we can delete it.

I think functions that absolutely must be __always_inline would break
with __no_kcsan_or_inline under KCSAN anyway. So, let's simplify.

Yes, we should have reverted this eventually.

I think we just want to keep __no_sanitize_or_inline, for
READ_ONCE_NOCHECK. Having READ_ONCE_NOCHECK do KCSAN-checking seems
wrong, and I don't know what might break.

Will this eventually need __no_sanitize_address?

Acked -- if you send a patch, do split the test-related change, so
that Paul can apply it to the test which is currently only in -rcu.
