mips/gup: Replace ACCESS_ONCE with READ_ONCE
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
ACCESS_ONCE does not work reliably on non-scalar types. For
example gcc 4.6 and 4.7 might remove the volatile tag for such
accesses during the SRA (scalar replacement of aggregates) step
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58145)

Change the gup code to replace ACCESS_ONCE with READ_ONCE.
