+Subject: [PATCH 293/347] hrtimer: Use READ_ONCE to access timer->base in
+ hrimer_grab_expiry_lock()
+Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.19/older/patches-4.19.246-rt110.tar.xz
+
+[ Upstream commit 2c8fdbe7ef0ad06c1a326886c5954e117b5657d6 ]
+
+The update to timer->base is protected by the base->cpu_base->lock().
+However, hrtimer_grab_expirty_lock() does not access it with the lock.
+
+So it would theorically be possible to have timer->base changed under
+our feet. We need to prevent the compiler to refetch timer->base so the
+check and the access is performed on the same base.
+
+Other access of timer->base are either done with a lock or protected
+with READ_ONCE(). So use READ_ONCE() in hrtimer_grab_expirty_lock().
