Maybe I'm noob, but I'm confused how can this fix the problem, looks
like the race condition doesn't change.
In sbitmap_find_bit_in_word:
1) __sbitmap_get_word read word;
2) sbitmap_deferred_clear clear cleared;
3) sbitmap_deferred_clear update word;
2) and 3) are done atomically while 1) can still concurrent with 3):
t1:
sbitmap_find_bit_in_word
__sbitmap_get_word
-> read old word, return -1
t2:
sbitmap_find_bit_in_word
__sbitmap_get_word
-> read old word, return -1
sbitmap_deferred_clear
-> clear cleared and update word
sbitmap_deferred_clear
-> cleared is cleared, fail
BYW, I still think it's fine to fix this problem by trying the
__sbitmap_get_word() at least one more time if __sbitmap_get_word()
failed.
