I can't find out where the counters are used in irq context? Can you 
point me in the right direction? I'll prefer for these counters to go in 
under the existing line_lock.

How does moving to 4 lines solve this case? The way I read it is that it 
only postpones when this occurs?

Why this change? I like to keep new features for 4.13. Only bugfixes for 
4.12.
