Yes, see immediately above.

It doesn't revert Jason's change, it builds on it. The patches could
we squashed, but there's no bug in Jason's patch that we're trying to
avoid exposing, so I don't see why we'd do that.

Thanks! It was Jason's patch[1] that converted to use an atomic
though, so I'm slightly confused if this R-b is for the patch below,
Jason's patch, or both. Thanks,
