Hello, Puranjay.

- 1/3: A fetching atomic through a number now fails to load with an
  empty verifier log, where it used to get the message above. That
  seems problematic. Can that case keep an error message?
- 3/3: sched_ext/for-7.4 already synced a cid.bpf.h from scx which
  probes for the fetching atomics and keeps the CAS loop as the
  old-kernel fallback, so this conflicts with it. I'll pull
  bpf/for-next into sched_ext/for-7.4 and we can do the modifications
  on top.

For 1/3 and 2/3,

Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Thanks.
