False positive. The read-modify-write targets the per-call kernel output
buffer while the calling BPF thread is blocked in the synchronous kfunc; the
authoritative cap state is kernel-owned under pshard->lock. The non-atomic
word ops are documented as tearing-only on that output, not a correctness
race.
