The volatile accesses no longer need to be wrapped in data_race() because compilers that emit instrumentation distinguishing volatile accesses are required for KCSAN. Consequently, the explicit kcsan_check_atomic*() are no longer required either since the compiler emits instrumentation distinguishing the volatile accesses. Finally, simplify __READ_ONCE_SCALAR() and remove __WRITE_ONCE_SCALAR().

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.
