This commit adds functionality to judgelitmus.sh to allow it to handle both the "DATARACE" markers in the "Result:" comments in litmus tests and the "Flag data-race" markers in LKMM output. For C-language tests, if either marker is present, the other must also be as well, at least for litmus tests having a "Result:" comment. If the LKMM output indicates a data race, then failures of the Always/Sometimes/Never portion of the "Result:" prediction are forgiven. The reason for forgiving "Result:" mispredictions is that data races can result in "interesting" compiler optimizations, so that all bets are off in the data-race case.

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 Restructured Text 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.
