Subject: [PATCH] bpf_lru_list: Read double-checked variable once without lock

For double-checked locking in bpf_common_lru_push_free(), node->type is
read outside the critical section and then re-checked under the lock.
However, concurrent writes to node->type result in data races.

For example, the following concurrent access was observed by KCSAN:

  write to 0xffff88801521bc22 of 1 bytes by task 10038 on cpu 1:
   __bpf_lru_node_move_in        kernel/bpf/bpf_lru_list.c:91
   __local_list_flush            kernel/bpf/bpf_lru_list.c:298
   ...
  read to 0xffff88801521bc22 of 1 bytes by task 10043 on cpu 0:
   bpf_common_lru_push_free      kernel/bpf/bpf_lru_list.c:507
   bpf_lru_push_free             kernel/bpf/bpf_lru_list.c:555
   ...

Fix the data races where node->type is read outside the critical section
(for double-checked locking) by marking the access with READ_ONCE() as
well as ensuring the variable is only accessed once.
