/**
* rcu_assign_pointer() - assign to RCU-protected pointer

*
* Assigns the specified value to the specified RCU-protected
* pointer, ensuring that any concurrent RCU readers will see
* any prior initialization.
*
* Inserts memory barriers on architectures that require them
* (which is most of them), and also prevents the compiler from
* reordering the code that initializes the structure after the pointer
* assignment. More importantly, this call documents which pointers
* will be dereferenced by RCU read-side code.
*
* In some special cases, you may use RCU_INIT_POINTER() instead
* of rcu_assign_pointer(). RCU_INIT_POINTER() is a bit faster due
* to the fact that it does not constrain either the CPU or the compiler.
* That said, using RCU_INIT_POINTER() when you should have used
* rcu_assign_pointer() is a very bad thing that results in
* impossible-to-diagnose memory corruption. So please be careful.
* See the RCU_INIT_POINTER() comment header for details.
*
* Note that rcu_assign_pointer() evaluates each of its arguments only
* once, appearances notwithstanding. One of the "extra" evaluations
* is in typeof() and the other visible only to sparse (__CHECKER__),
* neither of which actually execute the argument. As with most cpp
* macros, this execute-arguments-only-once property is important, so
* please be careful when making changes to rcu_assign_pointer() and the
* other macros that it invokes.
