OK, Jan, I got your meaning now. And it's not the exactly swap. :)

I think the old code is safe, seems it's broken(exposed) by: 

commit 1a8bd481bfba30515b54368d90a915db3faf302f

    intel-iommu: Fix 32-bit build warning with __cmpxchg()
    
    drivers/pci/intel-iommu.c: In function 'dma_pte_addr':
    drivers/pci/intel-iommu.c:239: warning: passing argument 1 of '__cmpxchg64' 
from incompatible pointer typ
    
    It seems that __cmpxchg64() now cares about the type of its pointer argument,
    so give it a (uint64_t *) instead of a pointer to a structure which contains
    only that.

Seems here is the only affected code?
