Can this patch also be broken up. It should be possible to use
u64_stats_read() without changing the locking? So one patch which only
does u64_stats_read(). You should then be able to add the syncp
code. And lastly the mutex changes. That then allows you to explain
why the mutex changes are safe in the commit message.
