Should rq->hwsp_seqno be marked as rcu pointer?

We reset the fence signaled status before re-assigning the timeline. So 
if we were to query a request in the process of being allocated, do we 
need to do something extra to make sure !signaled status is not seen 
before the rq->hwsp_seqno is replaced? Like should the order of re-init 
be inverted?

Tvrtko
