[PATCH 5/8] mm/gup: Replace ACCESS_ONCE with READ_ONCE

From: Christian Borntraeger <hidden>
Date: 2015-01-15 08:58:24
Also in: kvm, linux-arch, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - gup (get user pages), the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Linus Torvalds

ACCESS_ONCE does not work reliably on non-scalar types. For
example gcc 4.6 and 4.7 might remove the volatile tag for such
accesses during the SRA (scalar replacement of aggregates) step
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58145)

Fixup gup_pmd_range.
