[PATCH net] mISDN: annotate data-race around dev->work

[PATCH net] mISDN: annotate data-race around dev->work

[Eric Dumazet]

dev->work can re read locklessly in mISDN_read()
and mISDN_poll(). Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations.

BUG: KCSAN: data-race in mISDN_ioctl / mISDN_read

write to 0xffff88812d848280 of 4 bytes by task 10864 on cpu 1:
