Thus far, accesses marked with data_race() would still require the racing access to be marked in some way (be it with READ_ONCE(), WRITE_ONCE(), or data_race() itself), as otherwise KCSAN would still report a data race. This requirement, however, seems to be unintuitive, and some valid use-cases demand *not* marking other accesses, as it might hide more serious bugs (e.g. diagnostic reads). Therefore, this commit changes data_race() to no longer require marking racing accesses (although it's still recommended if possible). The alternative would have been introducing another variant of data_race(), however, since usage of data_race() already needs to be carefully reasoned about, distinguishing between these cases likely adds more complexity in the wrong place.
