Hi Randy,
Thanks for the patch, it looks good to me. I only had a question on
the commit message.

Is this also related to:
commit 3347acc6fcd4 ("compiler.h: fix barrier_data() on clang")

I plan to backport 3347acc6fcd4, so it would be good if all of the
follow ups are all tagged accordingly with fixes tags, so that I don't
break anything backporting 3347acc6fcd4 because I forgot or missed any
follow ups that also needed to be backported.
