The KCSAN sanitiser notifies programmers of instances where unmarked
accesses to shared state has lead to a data race, or when the compiler
has liberty to reorder an unmarked access and so generate a data race.
This patch series deals with benign data races, which nonetheless need
annotation in order to ensure the correctness of the emitted code.

In keeping with the principles given in
tools/memory-model/Documentation/access-marking.txt, racing reads of
shared state for purely diagnostic/debug purposes are annotated with
data_race, while reads/writes that are examples of intention polling of
shared variables are performed with READ_ONCE, WRITE_ONCE.

These changes remove the majority of warnings observable on pseries and
powernv, where for development, I was able to narrow down to only power
relevant bugs by temporarily disabling sanitisation for all other files.
Future patch series will deal with the subtler bugs which persist under
this configuration.

KCSAN races addressed:
 - qspinlock: assignign of qnode->locked and polling
 - check_return_regs_valid [h]srr_valid
 - arch_cpu_idle idle callback
 - powernv idle_state paca entry (polling the bit-lock is viewed by
   KCSAN as asynchronous access to the fields it protects)
 - Asynchronous access to irq_data->hwirq
 - Opal asynchronous event handling
 - IPIs

Miscellaneous other changes:

 - Annotate the asm-generic/mmiowb code, which riscv and powerpc each
   consume
 - Update usages of qnode->locked in powerpc's qspinlock interpretation
   to reflect the comment beside this field
