In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kcsan: Turn report_filterlist_lock into a raw_spinlock
Ran Xiaokai reports that with a KCSAN-enabled PREEMPT_RT kernel, we can see
splats like:

On a detected data race, KCSAN's reporting logic checks if it should
filter the report. That list is protected by the report_filterlist_lock
*non-raw* spinlock which may sleep on RT kernels.
Since KCSAN may report data races in any context, convert it to a
raw_spinlock.
This requires being careful about when to allocate memory for the filter
list itself which can be done via KCSAN's debugfs interface. Concurrent
modification of the filter list via debugfs should be rare: the chosen
strategy is to optimistically pre-allocate memory before the critical
section and discard if unused.
