Imo if we bother with this we might as well just switch over to using
full-blown seqlocks. They internally use a two-stage update which means
race-free even with just one copy of the data we protect. Also more
standardized to boot.
Series looks good otherwise, I'll wait for Maarten to r-b it and then pull
it in.
