Subject: [PATCH] cred: Use RCU primitives to access RCU pointers
Date:   Tue, 28 Jan 2020 12:57:41 +0530
Message-Id: <20200128072740.21272-1-frextrite@gmail.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

task_struct.cred and task_struct.real_cred are annotated by __rcu,
hence use rcu_access_pointer to access them.

Fixes the following sparse errors:
kernel/cred.c:144:9: error: incompatible types in comparison expression
(different address spaces):
kernel/cred.c:144:9:    struct cred *
kernel/cred.c:144:9:    struct cred const [noderef] <asn:4> *
kernel/cred.c:145:9: error: incompatible types in comparison expression
(different address spaces):
kernel/cred.c:145:9:    struct cred *
kernel/cred.c:145:9:    struct cred const [noderef] <asn:4> *
