The cpu lock implementation uses a full memory barrier to take the lock, but no memory barriers when releasing the lock. This means that changes performed by a lock owner may not be seen by the next lock owner. This may have been "good enough" for use by dump_stack() as a serialization mechanism, but it is not enough to provide proper protection for a critical section. Correct this problem by using acquire/release memory barriers for lock/unlock, respectively.
