Avoid checking scoped accesses from nested contexts (such as nested interrupts or in scheduler code) which share the same kcsan_ctx. This is to avoid detecting false positive races of accesses in the same thread with currently scoped accesses: consider setting up a watchpoint for a non-scoped (normal) access that also "conflicts" with a current scoped access. In a nested interrupt (or in the scheduler), which shares the same kcsan_ctx, we cannot check scoped accesses set up in the parent context -- simply ignore them in this case. With the introduction of kcsan_ctx::disable_scoped, we can also clean up kcsan_check_scoped_accesses()'s recursion guard, and do not need to modify the list's prev pointer.

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.
