Subject: [PATCH] drivers/base: use READ_ONCE instead of deprecated ACCESS_ONCE

With the new standardized functions, we can replace all ACCESS_ONCE()
calls across relevant drivers/base/.

ACCESS_ONCE() does not work reliably on non-scalar types. For example
gcc 4.6 and 4.7 might remove the volatile tag for such accesses during
the SRA (scalar replacement of aggregates) step:

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58145

Update the new calls regardless of if it is a scalar type, this is
cleaner than having three alternatives.

What changed from v1? Please always include it below the --- line to
keep maintainer's semi-sane.

Try again?

If anything changed I would have -- this is only the From != SoB thing
you were complaining about. There's nothing to try again, this is a trivial.

How am I supposed to remember that? And that is a change, so please
list it. Otherwise I just will drop it.

Remember, maintainers get hundreds of patches, and have no short term
memory at all, you have to remind them of everything. That's your job.

a trivial what?

Anyway, you are going to have to fix it up if you want it accepted, it's
long gone from my patch queue...

thanks,
