Maybe:

Fix the kernel test robot warning below:

Replace …

Excuse my ignorance regarding `READ_ONCE()`, but is that the reason you 
remove the volatile qualifier?

Some robots ask in their report to add a Found-by tag. If so, please add 
one.

Did you verify, that the generated code is the same now, or what the 
differences are. If it’s different from before, you should document in 
the commit message, that it’s wanted, as otherwise, it’s an invasive 
change just to fix a warning.

Kind regards,
