Fix a sparse warning with this message
"warning:dereference of noderef expression". In this context it means we
are dereferencing a __rcu tagged pointer directly.
We should not be directly dereferencing a rcu pointer. To get a normal
(non __rcu tagged pointer) from a __rcu tagged pointer we are using the
function unrcu_pointer(...). The non __rcu tagged pointer then can be
dereferenced just like a normal pointer.
I tested with qemu with this command
qemu-system-x86_64 \
-m 2G \
-smp 2 \
-kernel bzImage \
-append "console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sda earlyprintk=serial net.ifnames=0" \
-drive file=bullseye.img,format=raw \
-net user,host=10.0.2.10,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:10021-:22 \
-net nic,model=e1000 \
-enable-kvm \
-nographic \
-pidfile vm.pid \
2>&1 | tee vm.log
with lockdep enabled.

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.
