When running delayed references we are reading the number of ready delayed ref heads without taking any lock which can make KCSAN report a race since we can have concurrent tasks updating that number, such as for example when freeing a tree block which will end up decrementing that counter or when adding a new delayed ref while COWing a tree block which will increment that counter. This is a harmless race since running one more or one less delayed ref head doesn't result in any problem, in the critical section of a transaction commit we always run any remaining delayed refs and at that point no one can create more. So fix this harmless race by annotating the read with data_race().

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.
