In function ring_buffer_iter_empty(), cpu_buffer->commit_page and
curr_commit_page->page->time_stamp is read using READ_ONCE() in
line 4354, 4355
4354 curr_commit_page = READ_ONCE(cpu_buffer->commit_page);
4355 curr_commit_ts = READ_ONCE(curr_commit_page->page->time_stamp);
while they are read directly in line 4340, 4341
4340 commit_page = cpu_buffer->commit_page;
4341 commit_ts = commit_page->page->time_stamp;
There is patch similar to this. commit c1c0ce31b242 ("r8169: fix the KCSAN
reported data-race in rtl_tx() while reading tp->cur_tx")
This patch find two read of same variable while one is protected, another
is not. And READ_ONCE() is added to protect.
