How are we dealing with the fact that LTO can break RCU in very subtle
and scary ways?

Do we have a compiler guy on board that has given us a compiler switch
that kills that optimization (and thereby guarantees that behaviour for
future compilers etc..) ?

Also see the thread here:

(and yes, this is a fine example of how lore sucks for reading email)
