[ Upstream commit4a5dc632e0] Originally, `Atomic::from_ptr()` requires `T` being a `Sync` because I thought having the ability to do `from_ptr()` meant multiplle `&Atomic<T>`s shared by different threads, which was identical (or similar) to multiple `&T`s shared by different threads. Hence `T` was required to be `Sync`. However this is not true, since `&Atomic<T>` is not the same at `&T`. Moreover, having this bound makes `Atomic::<*mut T>::from_ptr()` impossible, which is definitely not intended. Therefore remove the `T: Sync` bound.

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 reStructuredText 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.
