This looks racy. We may have concurrent accesses and it'll lead to
another access-after-free.

... and this leaves NULL to cdev->stats. Then a later access to sysfs
would lead to NULL derference.

Also we must not re-initialize spinlock here at each resizing.
Rather use spinlock for switching to the new table.


thanks,
