Other reads,

 read to 0xffff91ea33eac400 of 8 bytes by task 11276 on cpu 120:
  __swap_writepage+0x140/0xc20
  __swap_writepage at mm/page_io.c:289

 read to 0xffff91ea33eac400 of 8 bytes by task 11264 on cpu 16:
  swap_set_page_dirty+0x44/0x1f4
  swap_set_page_dirty at mm/page_io.c:442

The write is under &si->lock, but the reads are done as lockless. Since
the reads only check for a specific bit in the flag, it is harmless even
if load tearing happens. Thus, just mark them as intentional data races
using the data_race() macro.
