[PATCH] timers/nohz: Annotate lockless accesses to got_idle_tick

[Kunwu Chan <kunwu.chan@gmail.com>]

tick_sched_do_timer(), called from the tick interrupt handler, sets
ts->got_idle_tick when a tick fires while the CPU is idle.  The idle
path reads and clears it via tick_nohz_idle_got_tick() to detect
whether the tick handler has run.

The flag is accessed locklessly from hardirq and task context.  A
concurrent set can be overwritten by the clear.

Use READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() to annotate the lockless accesses.
