Just a resend since this hasn't been picked up yet. No real changes from the last set (other than adding Jan's Reviewed-bys). Latest cover letter follows: --------------------------8<---------------------------- v6: - use READ_ONCE to ensure that compiler doesn't optimize away local var The only difference from v5 is the change to use READ_ONCE to fetch the bd_super pointer, to ensure that the compiler doesn't refetch it afterward. Many thanks to Jan K. for the explanation!
