arm64: Fix non-atomic __READ_ONCE() with CONFIG_LTO=y
The implementation of __READ_ONCE() under CONFIG_LTO=y incorrectly qualified the fallback "once" access for types larger than 8 bytes, which are not atomic but should still happen "once" and suppress common compiler optimizations. The cast `volatile typeof(__x)` applied the volatile qualifier to the pointer type itself rather than the pointee. This created a volatile pointer to a non-volatile type, which violated __READ_ONCE() semantics. Fix this by casting to `volatile typeof(*__x) *`. With a defconfig + LTO + debug options build, we see the following functions to be affected: xen_manage_runstate_time (884 -> 944 bytes) xen_steal_clock (248 -> 340 bytes) ^-- use __READ_ONCE() to load vcpu_runstate_info structs Fixes: e35123d83ee3 ("arm64: lto: Strengthen READ_ONCE() to acquire when CONFIG_LTO=y") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Boqun Feng <boqun@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Marco Elver <elver@google.com> Tested-by: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org>
