4.9.115-rt94-rc1 stable review patch.
If you have any objection to the inclusion of this patch, let me know.

--- 8< --- 8< --- 8< ---
The mainline implementation of read_seqbegin() orders prior loads w.r.t.
the read-side critical section.  Fixup the RT writer-boosting
implementation to provide the same guarantee.

Also, while we're here, update the usage of ACCESS_ONCE() to use
READ_ONCE().
