exit: Use READ_ONCE() for all oops/warn limit reads
commit 7535b832c6399b5ebfc5b53af5c51dd915ee2538 upstream. Use a temporary variable to take full advantage of READ_ONCE() behavior. Without this, the report (and even the test) might be out of sync with the initial test. Reported-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y5x7GXeluFmZ8E0E@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net Fixes: 9fc9e278a5c0 ("panic: Introduce warn_limit") Fixes: d4ccd54d28d3 ("exit: Put an upper limit on how often we can oops") Cc: "Eric W.
