The scenario that defeats simply grabbing a set of shared/exclusive
fences and using them blissfully under RCU is that any of those fences
may be reallocated by a SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU fence slab cache. In this
scenario, while keeping the rcu_read_lock we need to establish that no
fence was changed in the dma_resv after a read (or full) memory barrier.

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.
