This gives the impression of safety during cursory review but achieves little. Note that this is likely to be a latent issue at present because sched_clock_register() is typically called before we enable interrupts, however the issue does risk bugs being needlessly introduced as the code evolves. This patch fixes the problem by increasing the scope of the read locking performed by sched_clock() to cover all data modified by sched_clock_register. We also improve clarity by moving writes to struct clock_data that do not impact sched_clock() outside of the critical section.
