Andrey Ryabinin bfe7aa6c39 fs/dcache: Use read_word_at_a_time() in dentry_string_cmp()
dentry_string_cmp() performs the word-at-a-time reads from 'cs' and may
read slightly more than it was requested in kmallac().  Normally this
would make KASAN to report out-of-bounds access, but this was
workarounded by commit df4c0e36f1 ("fs: dcache: manually unpoison
dname after allocation to shut up kasan's reports").

This workaround is not perfect, since it allows out-of-bounds access to
dentry's name for all the code, not just in dentry_string_cmp().

So it would be better to use read_word_at_a_time() instead and revert
commit df4c0e36f1.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
