I spent sometime to dig into the issue which motivates me to propose this
solution. And it was found that this issue could not be easily solved
directly because there seems to be an inevitable race condition window, with the
increasing of CPU number, this race condition is exposed easlier. So
current patch is an indirect solution to avoid that, I'll send the detail
in v3.

Thanks for always helping us to test the patch, I'll send v3 once I get the
result and we can discuss on that then.
thanks,
