Christian Brauner d25bf5a341 taskstats: fix data-race
[ Upstream commit 0b8d616fb5a8ffa307b1d3af37f55c15dae14f28 ]

When assiging and testing taskstats in taskstats_exit() there's a race
when setting up and reading sig->stats when a thread-group with more
than one thread exits:

write to 0xffff8881157bbe10 of 8 bytes by task 7951 on cpu 0:

 do_syscall_64+0xcf/0x2f0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:296
 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

Fix this by using smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release().

README

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.
