Lance Yang 989c2f55ca mm: silence data-race in update_hiwater_rss
KCSAN reports a data race on mm_cluster.hiwater_rss, which can be accessed
concurrently from various paths like page migration and memory unmapping
without synchronization.

Since hiwater_rss is a statistical field for accounting purposes, this
data race is benign.  Annotate both the read and write accesses with
data_race() to make KCSAN happy.

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 reStructuredText 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.
