[ Upstream commit 2a7ce82dc46c591c9244057d89a6591c9639b9b9 ]
In order for KCSAN to increase its likelihood of observing a data race,
it sets a watchpoint on memory accesses and stalls, allowing for
detection of conflicting accesses by other kernel threads or interrupts.
Stalls are implemented by injecting a call to udelay in instrumented code.
To prevent recursive instrumentation, exclude udelay from being instrumented.
