This patch series is the conclusion to [1], where we determined that due
to various interactions with no_sanitize attributes and the new
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), KCSAN will require Clang 11 or later. Other
sanitizers are largely untouched, and only KCSAN now has a hard
dependency on Clang 11. To test, a recent Clang development version will
suffice [2]. While a little inconvenient for now, it is hoped that in
future we may be able to fix GCC and re-enable GCC support.The patch "kcsan: Restrict supported compilers" contains a detailed list of requirements that led to this decision. Most of the patches are related to KCSAN, however, the first patch also includes an UBSAN related fix and is a dependency for the remaining ones. The last 2 patches clean up the attributes by moving them to the right place, and fix KASAN's way of defining __no_kasan_or_inline, making it consistent with KCSAN. The series has been tested by running kcsan-test several times and completed successfully.

This effectively restores Will Deacon's pre-KCSAN version: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/will/linux.git/tree/include/linux/compiler.h?h=rwonce/cleanup#n202 * Introduce patch making data_race() a single statement expression in response to apparent issues that compilers are having with nested statement expressions.
