Have you checked that the atomic write is actually what happens here,
but looking at the compiler output? You might need to add a 'volatile'
qualifier to the dest_tre argument so the temporary structure doesn't
get optimized away here.

That is a lot of irqsave()/irqrestore() operations. Do you actually call
all of these functions from hardirq context?
