for now and more explanation into changlog.
So what I gather arm64's final select line may look like:

select HAVE_ARCH_KCSAN if EXPERT && (CC_IS_GCC || CLANG_VERSION >= 120000)
Yes, that's what we want now.
I think we have all the pieces sorted out, so hopefully you have
everything you need to do v3.
OK, I will resend v3.

I actually have a "fix" for the data race in rwsem_spin_on_owner, that
also shows where the other racing access comes from... which reminds me:

There's a owner_on_cpu(), we could reuse it,
That looks like a reasonable thing to do, but can't say if it is
actually the right thing to do. You could suggest it in reply to the
patch I just sent and see what people say.
Could you cc me, I can't reply email due to no subscribe to mailing list, thanks.
