Under which circumstances would you become interested to apply statements
like the following?

* guard(rcu)();
  https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.10-rc5/source/include/linux/rcupdate.h#L1093

* guard(spinlock_irq)(&css_set_lock);
  https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.10-rc5/source/include/linux/spinlock.h#L567
