Without using WRITE_ONCE(), the compiler can potentially break a write into multiple smaller ones (store tearing). So a read from the same data by another task concurrently may return a partial result. This can result in a kernel crash if the data is a memory address that is being dereferenced. This patch changes all write to rwsem->owner to use WRITE_ONCE() to make sure that store tearing will not happen. READ_ONCE() may not be needed for rwsem->owner as long as the value is only used for comparison and not dereferencing.

* The owner field of the rw_semaphore structure will be set to

* In essence, the owner field now has the following 3 states:

* 1) 0
|
|
* - lock is free or the owner hasn't set the field yet
|
|
* 2) RWSEM_READER_OWNED
|
|
* - lock is currently or previously owned by readers (lock is free
|
|
* or not set by owner yet)
|
|
* 3) Other non-zero value
|
