Introduces ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_WRITER() and ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_ACCESS(), which
may be used to assert properties of synchronization logic, where
violation cannot be detected as a normal data race.
Examples of the reports that may be generated:
==================================================================
BUG: KCSAN: assert: race in test_thread / test_thread
write to 0xffffffffab3d1540 of 8 bytes by task 466 on cpu 2:

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.
