I am surprised to see that this isn't reported by anybody since the time
it came into existence? Some special config option required to observe
this?

That looks to be wrong. This commit just moved things around and I can still
see rcu_read_lock() before this commit.

Yep. Number of OPPs can vary over time on a running machine.

I am not really sure if there would be any consequences of this, but overall it
looks fine.
