It is better to add a description about this data structure in
kerneldoc style, instead of adding a comment on each field,
because this structure will be exposed to user space.

I think 'is_cpu_buffer' is a bit unclear (or generic),
what about 'meta_page_update'?

Instead of using these cmpxchg, can we move this initialization before
smp_wmb()? Thus we can avoid conflict with rb_update_meta_page()
