I am not sure...
This is fine if this ->filter is the 1st (and only) one, in this case
we can rely on rmb() in the caller.
But the new filter can be installed at any moment. Say, right after that
rmb() although this doesn't matter. Either we need smp_read_barrier_depends()
after that, or smp_load_acquire() like the previous version did?
