Well yes, but... It turns out I didn't grep enough.
See fs/splice.c and wakeup_pipe_readers/writers (which should use
wq_has_sleeper() for grep sake). And I don't understand why do these helpers
use key == NULL...
So it seems that pipe_poll() already needs smp_mb() to fix the current code,
at least in theory. I'll recheck and send the patch(es).
Oleg.
