Ido Schimmel 784b78295a vxlan: Annotate FDB data races
[ Upstream commit f6205f8215f12a96518ac9469ff76294ae7bd612 ]

The 'used' and 'updated' fields in the FDB entry structure can be
accessed concurrently by multiple threads, leading to reports such as
[1]. Can be reproduced using [2].

Suppress these reports by annotating these accesses using
READ_ONCE() / WRITE_ONCE().

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.
