READ/WRITE_ONCE_NOCHECK() is required for atomics in code which cannot be
instrumented like the x86 int3 text poke code. As READ/WRITE_ONCE() is
undergoing a rewrite, provide __{READ,WRITE}_ONCE_SCALAR().

FWIW, these end up being called __READ_ONCE() and __WRITE_ONCE() after
the rewrite; the *_SCALAR() variants will call into kcsan_check_atomic_*().
If you go with that naming now, then any later conflict should fall out in
the wash.

Ah excellent, clearly we had slightly different resoltions vs kcsan.
Thanks!
