For some reason the word "hopefully" in a bug fix doesn't make me very
hopeful ;-)

With data races, the concept of "written to memory" doesn't make much
sense anymore.
* From this point, there are no events on the queue and the status URB
* is dead. No events will be queued until uvc_status_start() is called.
* The barrier is needed to make sure that flush_status is visible to
* uvc_ctrl_status_event_work() when uvc_status_start() will be called
* again.
I'll update the comments locally.
