Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] arm64: Fix kcsan test_barrier fail and panic

Fix selftest and kcsan_test() module fail when KCSAN_STRICT
and KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY enabled on ARM64.

v2:
- Add documents about dma_mb(), suggested Mike and Will.
- drop Fixes tag and update changlog, suggested Mike.

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] Documentation/barriers: Add memory barrier dma_mb()

The memory barrier dma_mb() is introduced by commit a76a37777f2c
("iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Ensure queue is read after updating prod pointer"),
which is used to ensure that prior (both reads and writes) accesses to
memory by a CPU are ordered w.r.t. a subsequent MMIO write.

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] arm64: kcsan: Support detecting more missing memory barriers

As "kcsan: Support detecting a subset of missing memory barriers"[1]
introduced KCSAN_STRICT/KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY which make kcsan detects
more missing memory barrier, but arm64 don't have KCSAN instrumentation
for barriers, so the new selftest test_barrier() and test cases for
memory barrier instrumentation in kcsan_test module will fail, even
panic on selftest.

Let's prefix all barriers with __ on arm64, as asm-generic/barriers.h
defined the final instrumented version of these barriers, which will
fix the above issues.

Note, barrier instrumentation that can be disabled via __no_kcsan with
appropriate compiler-support (and not just with objtool help), see
commit bd3d5bd1a0ad ("kcsan: Support WEAK_MEMORY with Clang where no
objtool support exists"), it adds disable_sanitizer_instrumentation to
__no_kcsan attribute which will remove all sanitizer instrumentation fully
(with Clang 14.0). Meanwhile, GCC does the same thing with no_sanitize.
