The afs_net::ws_cell member is sometimes used under RCU conditions from
within an seq-readlock. It isn't, however, marked __rcu and it isn't set
using the proper RCU barrier-imposing functions.
Fix this by annotating it with __rcu and using appropriate barriers to
make sure accesses are correctly ordered.
Without this, the code can produce the following warning:
>> fs/afs/proc.c:151:24: sparse: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces)

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
