BUG: KCSAN: data-race in do_raw_write_lock / do_raw_write_lock<br />
<br />
write (marked) to 0xffff800009cf504c of 4 bytes by task 1102 on cpu 1:<br />

Commit 1a365e822372 ("locking/spinlock/debug: Fix various data races") has<br />
adressed most of these races, but seems to be not consistent/not complete.<br />
<br />
>From do_raw_write_lock() only debug_write_lock_after() part has been<br />
converted to WRITE_ONCE(), but not debug_write_lock_before() part.<br />
Do it now.
