USB submission and completion paths read bus->monitored without taking
mon_lock or the monitor bus lock. Adding and removing readers changes the
flag under those locks, so the plain accesses race, as reported by KCSAN.
Use READ_ONCE() for the fast-path checks and WRITE_ONCE() for the updates.
The monitor callbacks still serialize access to their reader lists using
the existing bus locks.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")

[Severity: Low]
The commit SHA in the Fixes: trailer cannot be resolved in the repository
because the 12-character prefix 1da177e4c3f4 is ambiguous (the initial git
commit requires at least 13 characters, 1da177e4c3f41 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")).
