If you could elaborate on where the race condition is here, I think you'd being doing both me and the community a great service.
Nice try with the "Do it for the community because I don't understand this!" appeal, that doesn't work for me, sorry...
Boy, I try to be as deferential as possible here and you come back with this snarky response.
My experience is when software developers can't or won't explain how their code works, it's because they don't understand it themselves.
On the other hand, the kernel community does expect you to do a large chunk of the learning for yourself - first, because Greg KH isn't a scalable resource, and second, because if you take the time to figure it out for yourself, you'll understand it better than if Greg walked you through it.
