Is this a problem for all older versions as well?  If so, should it be
backported to the -stable kernel releases?

Trailing whitespace :(

Can't this be a bool?

Why add a commented out line?  Especially one that is incorrect?  :)

Don't return here, jump to the end of the function and return there.
That way you only have one lock/unlock pair and it's much easier to
maintain and audit over time that you got everything correct.

What's ever going to get us out of this loop?  You need a fall-back in
case this read never succeeds.

And why an atomic value if you have a lock protecting it?  That's major
overkill and is probably not needed.
