 Replying to [comment:2 cehoyos]:
 > How did you reproduce the issue an how can we reproduce it?

 I reproduce it using breakpoint. Specifically, I used llvm to instrument
 the code, and set breakpoint before the race instruction pair. By
 controling the breakpoints, I made the race instructions be executing
 concurrently. And then, I checked their access addresses and found they
 are same. So I am sure it is a real race .

 It may be hard for you to reproduce it easily. Gdb may be a good choice
 but it may require some your manual effort to set the breakpoint.
