So this one is doing concurrent writes and reads of the whole struct,
which is 16 bytes. This will always be split into multiple
loads/stores. Is it intentional?

Sadly, this is pretty much guaranteed to tear, even with the
READ/WRITE_ONCE.  The *ONCE will just make KCSAN not tell us about
this one, which is probably not what we want right now, unless we know
for sure the race is intentional.
