So, I attempted to rebase the patch to current (somewhat old) master of
https://github.com/aparri/memory-model. Why? Because the lkmm branch
in Paul's -rcu tree doesn't have linux-kernel-hardware.cat.

However, after this change, Z6.0+pooncelock+pooncelock+pombonce still
has the result "Sometimes". I must have done something wrong in the
conflict resolution.

Note: I have almost no idea what this patch is doing. I'm just hoping
to give a starting point of a discussion.

    Thanks, Akira
