OK, Jan, I got your meaning now. And it's not the exactly swap. :) I think the old code is safe, seems it's broken(exposed) by: commit 1a8bd481bfba30515b54368d90a915db3faf302f Author: David Woodhouse Date: Tue Aug 10 01:38:53 2010 +0100 intel-iommu: Fix 32-bit build warning with __cmpxchg() drivers/pci/intel-iommu.c: In function 'dma_pte_addr': drivers/pci/intel-iommu.c:239: warning: passing argument 1 of '__cmpxchg64' from incompatible pointer typ It seems that __cmpxchg64() now cares about the type of its pointer argument, so give it a (uint64_t *) instead of a pointer to a structure which contains only that.
