Subject: [GIT PULL] locking/debug updates for v5.15

Linus,

Please pull the latest locking/debug git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git locking-debug-2021-09-01

   # HEAD: 4812c9111220b0af00f7a436cc02ffaed289962c Merge branch 'lkmm' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into locking/debug

LKMM updates:

 - Update documentation and code example

KCSAN updates:

 - Introduce CONFIG_KCSAN_STRICT (which RCU uses)
 - Optimize use of get_ctx() by kcsan_found_watchpoint()
 - Rework atomic.h into permissive.h
 - Add the ability to ignore writes that change only one bit of a given data-racy variable.
 - Improve comments

 Thanks,

	Ingo
