The spacing is different from the lines above. There should be two tab
characters between the 'v' and the '*', not three spaces.

Also, the variable should be named "new_fsg", not "new".

The description is long-winded and confusing, but the patch is correct.
The existing code fails to take into account the possibility that
common->new_fsg can change while do_set_interface() is running, because
the spinlock isn't held at this point.
