The read side of seqcount_latch consists of:
do {
seq = raw_read_seqcount_latch(&latch->seq);
...
} while (read_seqcount_latch_retry(&latch->seq, seq));
which is asymmetric in the raw_ department, and sure enough,
read_seqcount_latch_retry() includes (explicit) instrumentation where
raw_read_seqcount_latch() does not.
This inconsistency becomes a problem when trying to use it from
noinstr code. As such, fix it by renaming and re-implementing
raw_read_seqcount_latch_retry() without the instrumentation.
Specifically the instrumentation in question is kcsan_atomic_next(0)
in do___read_seqcount_retry(). Loosing this annotation is not a
problem because raw_read_seqcount_latch() does not pass through
kcsan_atomic_next(KCSAN_SEQLOCK_REGION_MAX).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
