Since BTS is coherent, simply add a compiler barrier to separate the BTS
update and aux_head store.
Could you reivew this patch and check if BTS needs the comipler
barrier in this case?  Thanks.
Yes, a compiler barrier is sufficient.

You want me to pick it up?
Maybe other maintainers are more suitable than me to answer this :)

Yeah, I think it's great if you could pick it.
OK, done.
