The variables which are processed by RCU functions should be annotated
as RCU, otherwise sparse will report the errors like below:
"error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different
address spaces)"

Changes in v2:
* Addressed Steven's comments
- Use rcu_dereference_protected() instead of rcu_dereference_raw_notrace()
* Rebased on v4.12-rc1

I may fix this myself, but newlines like the above is IMHO uglier than
going over 80 characters. I much rather keep it on one line.

So far looks fine. I'll run it through my tests and see if it triggers
