cf. our discussion in active_get_rcu - there's no fence_get_rcu in sight
anywhere here, hence this needs an smp_rmb(). Also nitpick: The two
rcu_dereference(actove->request) feel a bit silly. If we move the first in
front of the loop, and update the local request pointer (using a tmp) it
would look tidier, and we could even move the loop termination condition
into the while () check (and move the return flag(id) at the end of the
function).
