Right, I think we can do the similar as Revocable here:
if *self.init.get_mut() == 2 { }
Further, with my following Benno's suggestion and making `Atomic<T>` an
`UnsafeCell<T>:
https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/aGhh-TvNOWhkt0JG@xxxxxxxx/
compiler can generate a noalias reference here, which allows further
optimization.
