This is a false positive data race between a seqcount latch writer and a
reader accessing stale data.
Unlike the regular seqlock interface, the seqcount_latch interface for
latch writers never has a well-defined critical section.
To support with KCSAN, optimistically declare that a fixed number of
memory accesses after raw_write_seqcount_latch() are "atomic". Latch
readers follow a similar pattern as the regular seqlock interface. This
effectively tells KCSAN that data races on accesses to seqcount_latch
protected data should be ignored.
Reviewing current raw_write_seqcount_latch() callers, the most common
patterns involve only few memory accesses, either a single plain C
assignment, or memcpy; therefore, the value of 8 memory accesses after
raw_write_seqcount_latch() is chosen to (a) avoid most false positives,
and (b) avoid excessive number of false negatives (due to inadvertently
declaring most accesses in the proximity of update_fast_timekeeper() as
"atomic").
