Linux kernel modifications for the Kernel Hacking exam
30b795df11
The code in lock.cat which checks for normal read/write accesses to spinlock variables doesn't take into account the newly added RL and RU events. Add them into the test, and move the resulting code up near the start of the file, since a violation would indicate a pretty severe conceptual error in a litmus test.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
