* data read before the pointer read by speculating the value of the pointer.
* Correct ordering is ensured because the pointer is read as a volatile access.
* This acts as a global side-effect operation, which forbids reordering of
- * dependent memory operations.
+ * dependent memory operations. Note that such concern about dependency-breaking

* Should match rcu_assign_pointer() or rcu_xchg_pointer().
