The story short: compiler can generate code that does two distinct fetches of *ind_addr for old and _old. If that happens we can not figure out if we had the desired xchg or not.

(A v2?) We can still get in fixes post-softfreeze, of course.

I would suggest to go with that and we can then do more beautification later when necessary.

The thing I could beautify is using atomic_read(), but frankly I'm not sure about it, especially considering multi-proccess. My understanding of volatile is better than my understanding of atomic_read(). On the other hand, same multi-process question can be asked about atomic_cmpxchg() and __atomic_compare_exchange_n()...

Having something that works now beats something not yet developed that might be nicer :) (But yes, it also might be good to look at non-s390 examples of this pattern and check if something can be done in a more central place.)
