x86/mm, kasan: Silence KASAN warnings in get_wchan()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
get_wchan() is racy by design, it may access volatile stack
of running task, thus it may access redzone in a stack frame
and cause KASAN to warn about this.

Use READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() to silence these warnings.
