Because only one discard worker may be running at any given point, it could have been safe to modify ->prev_discard, etc. without synchronization, if not for @override flag in btrfs_discard_schedule_work() and delayed_work_pending() returning false while workfn is running. That may lead to torn reads of u64 for some architectures, but that's not a big problem as only slightly affects the discard rate.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
