Julien Grall dd2261ed45 hrtimer: Protect lockless access to timer->base
The update to timer->base is protected by the base->cpu_base->lock().
However, hrtimer_cancel_wait_running() does access it lockless.  So the
compiler is allowed to refetch timer->base which can cause havoc when the
timer base is changed concurrently.

Use READ_ONCE() to prevent this.

README

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.
