Patch series "Fix data-races around epoll reported by KCSAN."
This series suppresses a false positive KCSAN's message and fixes a real
data-race.
This patch (of 2):
pipe_poll() runs locklessly and assigns 1 to poll_usage. Once poll_usage
is set to 1, it never changes in other places. However, concurrent writes
of a value trigger KCSAN, so let's make KCSAN happy.
BUG: KCSAN: data-race in pipe_poll / pipe_poll

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.
