Eric Dumazet 4bdcc6a5aa net: add atomic_long_t to net_device_stats fields
[ Upstream commit 6c1c5097781f563b70a81683ea6fdac21637573b ]

Long standing KCSAN issues are caused by data-race around
some dev->stats changes.

Most performance critical paths already use per-cpu
variables, or per-queue ones.

It is reasonable (and more correct) to use atomic operations
for the slow paths.

This patch adds an union for each field of net_device_stats,
so that we can convert paths that are not yet protected
by a spinlock or a mutex.

netdev_stats_to_stats64() no longer has an #if BITS_PER_LONG==64

Note that the memcpy() we were using on 64bit arches
had no provision to avoid load-tearing,
while atomic_long_read() is providing the needed protection
at no cost.

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.
