For double-checked locking in bpf_common_lru_push_free(), node->type is
read outside the critical section and then re-checked under the lock.
However, concurrent writes to node->type result in data races.
For example, the following concurrent access was observed by KCSAN:
write to 0xffff88801521bc22 of 1 bytes by task 10038 on cpu 1:
__bpf_lru_node_move_in kernel/bpf/bpf_lru_list.c:91
__local_list_flush kernel/bpf/bpf_lru_list.c:298
...
read to 0xffff88801521bc22 of 1 bytes by task 10043 on cpu 0:
bpf_common_lru_push_free kernel/bpf/bpf_lru_list.c:507
bpf_lru_push_free kernel/bpf/bpf_lru_list.c:555
...
Fix the data races where node->type is read outside the critical section
(for double-checked locking) by marking the access with READ_ONCE() as
well as ensuring the variable is only accessed once.

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.
