There are no more user of this function attribute, also, with us now
actively supporting '__no_kcsan inline' it doesn't make sense to have
in any case.

Document change in required compiler version for KCSAN, and remove the
now redundant note about __no_kcsan and inlining problems with older
compilers.

Introduce ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_*_SCOPED(), which provide an intuitive
interface to use the scoped-access feature, without having to explicitly
mark the start and end of the desired scope. Basing duration of the
checks on scope avoids accidental misuse and resulting false positives,
which may be hard to debug. See added comments for usage.
The macros are implemented using __attribute__((__cleanup__(func))),
which is supported by all compilers that currently support KCSAN.

Extend and improve based on recent changes, and summarize important
bits that have been missing. Tested with "make htmldocs".

Updates the section on "Selective analysis", listing all available
options to blacklist reporting data races for: specific accesses,
functions, compilation units, and entire directories.
These options should provide adequate control for maintainers to opt out
of KCSAN analysis at varying levels of granularity. It is hoped to
provide the required control to reflect preferences for handling data
races across the kernel.
