Currently, the x86 JIT handling PROBE_MEM32 tagged accesses is not
equipped to handle atomic accesses into PTR_TO_ARENA, as no PROBE_MEM32
tagging is performed and no handling is enabled for them.
This will lead to unsafety as the offset into arena will dereferenced
directly without turning it into a base + offset access into the arena
region.
Since the changes to the x86 JIT will be fairly involved, for now,
temporarily disallow use of PTR_TO_ARENA as the destination operand for
atomics until support is added to the JIT backend.
Fixes: 2fe99eb0cc ("bpf: Add x86-64 JIT support for PROBE_MEM32 pseudo instructions.")

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.
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.
