Nit: could we drop the atomic ops?  The "slots" is still only used in
the current thread before the rcu assignment, so iirc it's fine (and
RCU assignment should have a mem barrier when needed anyway).

I thought resetting lru_slot to zero would be good enough when
duplicating the slots... however if we want to do finer grained reset,
maybe even better to reset also those invalidated ones (since we know
this information)?

   	if (slots->lru_slot >= slots->id_to_index[memslot->id])
   		slots->lru_slot = 0;
  
Thanks,
