By doing so we can associate the sequence counter to the chunk_mutex for lockdep purposes (compiled-out otherwise), the mutex is otherwise used on the write side. Also avoid explicitly disabling preemption around the write region as it will now be done automatically by the seqcount machinery based on the lock type.

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.
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.
