I was just considering this for your smp_cond_acquire/smp_cond_load_acquire
rework, so yeah I guess an smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep would be a nice
compromise. 

However, I was always under the impression that races with node->locked were
rather harmless (as indicated in the mentioned commit) -- which is why ->locked
are simple load/stores, with the exception of the unqueueing -- but yeah, that's
not even paired.

Thanks,
Davidlohr
