The problem from the race is doubtful, but the gain from the optimization is also doubtful. Simply drop the optimization in favor of code simplicity. The user impact is doubtfully trivial. After all, this kind of interference can happen only by intentional user setup. Even if it happens, it will be rare, and the consequence is degradation of the best-effort monitoring results. No critical consequences like kernel panic or memory corruption happen. The race was discovered [1] by Sashiko.
