Eric Dumazet ea25e03da7 codel: annotate data-races in codel_dump_stats()
codel_dump_stats() only runs with RTNL held,
reading fields that can be changed in qdisc fast path.

Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations.

Alternative would be to acquire the qdisc spinlock, but our long-term
goal is to make qdisc dump operations lockless as much as we can.

tc_codel_xstats fields don't need to be latched atomically,
otherwise this bug would have been caught earlier.

No change in kernel size:
