hwmon: (max16065) Use READ/WRITE_ONCE to avoid compiler optimization induced race
Simply copying shared data to a local variable cannot prevent data
races. The compiler is allowed to optimize away the local copy and
re-read the shared memory, causing a Time-of-Check Time-of-Use (TOCTOU)
issue if the data changes between the check and the usage.
To enforce the use of the local variable, use READ_ONCE() when reading
the shared data and WRITE_ONCE() when updating it. Apply these macros to
the three identified locations (curr_sense, adc, and fault) where local
variables are used for error validation, ensuring the value remains
consistent.
