[PATCH] treewide: Rename rcu_dereference_raw_notrace to _check

2019-07-11 Thread Joel Fernandes (Google)
The rcu_dereference_raw_notrace() API name is confusing. It is equivalent to rcu_dereference_raw() except that it also does sparse pointer checking. There are only a few users of rcu_dereference_raw_notrace(). This patches renames all of them to be rcu_dereference_raw_check with the "check"
