[PATCH V2] checkpatch: Whine about ACCESS_ONCE

[Joe Perches <joe@perches.com>]

Add a test for use of ACCESS_ONCE that could be written using
READ_ONCE or WRITE_ONCE.

--fix it too if desired.

The WRITE_ONCE fixes are less correct than the coccinelle script below
as checkpatch cannot have a completely correct "expression" mechanism
because checkpatch works on patches and not complete files.

$ cat access_once.cocci
@@
expression e1;
expression e2;
@@

-       ACCESS_ONCE(e1) = e2
+       WRITE_ONCE(e1, e2)

@@
expression e1;
@@

-       ACCESS_ONCE(e1)
+       READ_ONCE(e1)

V2: Evolution 3.18 is a _really_ bad email client for sending patches.
    Improve the commit log a little and include a proper coccinelle script.
