Paul E. McKenney 020e6c22bd kcsan: Add example to data_race() kerneldoc header ...

Although the data_race() kerneldoc header accurately states what it does,
some of the implications and usage patterns are non-obvious.  Therefore,
add a brief locking example and also state how to have KCSAN ignore
accesses while also preventing the compiler from folding, spindling,
or otherwise mutilating the access.
