mm/swapfile: mark racy access on si->highest_bit

mainline inclusion
from mainline-v6.10-rc1
commit 5ee9562c586cd4ca9402b3636157abdd58ab7978
category: bugfix
bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/IAHY3K

Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=5ee9562c586cd4ca9402b3636157abdd58ab7978

--------------------------------

In scan_swap_map_slots(), si->highest_bit can by changed by
swap_range_alloc() concurrently.  All reads on si->highest_bit except one
is either protected by lock or read using READ_ONCE.  So mark the one racy
read on si->highest_bit as benign using READ_ONCE.

This patch is aimed at reducing the number of benign races reported by
KCSAN in order to focus future debugging effort on harmful races.
