drm/i915: Replace lockless_dereference(bool) with READ_ONCE()
After Joonas complained about using READ_ONCE() on the only use of the variable in the function, where the intent was to simply document that the read was intentionally racy and unlocked, I switched the READ_ONCE() over to lockless_dereference(). However, in linux-next that has a stronger type-check to only allow pointers and is no longer interchangeable with READ_ONCE(), see commit 331b6d8c ("locking/barriers: Validate lockless_dereference() is used on a pointer type") Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Fixes: 67d97da3 ("drm/i915: Only start retire worker when idle") Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1467705276-707-1-git-send-email-chris@chris-wilson.co.ukReviewed-by: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@intel.com>
