Indeed, commit 661d4f55a794 ("sbitmap: remove swap_lock") causes this
issue, and ->cleared and ->word should have been checked & updated
atomically.

IMO, the above fix looks a bit complicated, and I'd suggest to revert
661d4f55a794 ("sbitmap: remove swap_lock") if no clean & simple solution
can be figured out.
