Code stay there some time from me. Just from my crude review;
The above macro need a variable to load @var temporarily for
later store; that means the @copy value is from @var not @val.
# define u64_u32_store_copy(var, copy, val) \
do { \
typeof(val) __val = (val), __var = (var); \
var = __val; \
/* \
* paired with u64_u32_load, ordering access to var and \
* copy. \
*/ \
smp_wmb(); \
copy = __var; \
} while (0)
