Assuming that the problem occurs after the bottom-half completed, there
should be implicit memory barrier. The memory operation should complete
before the release from spin_unlock complete. I don't think wmb() will
help.

Oh ok. I did not know you made this modification.

I wasn't aware of this change.

Thanks for the update. I hope enabling of the driver tracepoints will
not impact the reproduction of the issue. With the driver log, we'll get
more clues to what was going on.
