I have known issues with RCU, but dare to disagree here.
It's done during call_rcu, so anything RCU friendly shouldn't
see this at the moment at all. It could be needed for those
with refcounting - than it should be checked, if there is
anything more than port_carrier_check.
Sorry for this than-ing!
(It's my next favorite issue after RCU.)
