Subject: [PATCH 5.15 13/66] pipe: make poll_usage boolean and annotate its access

From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@...zon.co.jp>

commit f485922d8fe4e44f6d52a5bb95a603b7c65554bb upstream.

Patch series "Fix data-races around epoll reported by KCSAN."

This series suppresses a false positive KCSAN's message and fixes a real
data-race.


This patch (of 2):

pipe_poll() runs locklessly and assigns 1 to poll_usage.  Once poll_usage
is set to 1, it never changes in other places.  However, concurrent writes
of a value trigger KCSAN, so let's make KCSAN happy.

BUG: KCSAN: data-race in pipe_poll / pipe_poll

write to 0xffff8880042f6678 of 4 bytes by task 174 on cpu 3:
 pipe_poll (fs/pipe.c:656)
