Debug helpers such as lock profiling or the invariant pCPU assertions

races might happen.
Note the issue was not strictly introduced by the pointed commit in
the Fixes tag, since lock stats where already incremented before the
barrier, but that commit made it more apparent as manipulating the cpu
field could happen outside of the locked regions and thus trigger the
BUG_ON.
From the wording, it is not entirely clear which BUG_ON() you are referring
to. I am guessing, it is the one in rel_lock(). Am I correct?
Yes, that's right. Expanding to:
"... and thus trigger the BUG_ON in rel_lock()." would be better.
Looks good to me. With that:

I am happy to do the update on commit if there is no more comments.
