Last I checked, pointer accesses are not guaranteed atomic, so how is
hdesc protected from concurrent access?
Here is it modified unprotected.
Below it is read unprotected.

Can't return an error code here.  Return value is u64, so this will look
like a valid ts.

Just return 0 on error, as you do immediately below...
