Interpreting the radio silence as an unanimous "No, it doesn't", please find
tentative fixes/patch (on top of the bpf_acquire_release branch cited in an
earlier post) at the bottom of this email.

While testing the changes in question, I noticed an (unrelated) omission in
the current PPO relation; the second patch below addresses that.

Both patches were tested using the "BPF catalogue" available in the tree at
stake: as expected, the only differences in outcomes were for the new/added
five tests.

Please use and integrate according to your preference, any feedback welcome.
