unlock again? Huh?

In the comment, please be specific about which data are protected.
For example:

/* Protects auxiliary snapshot registers from concurrent access. */

Please group same types together (u32) in a one-line list.

Reading this register has a side effect of clearing status? If so,
doesn't it need protection against concurrent access?

The function, intel_crosststamp() also reads this bit.

Doesn't this test come too late? Setting ts_status just cleared the
bit used by the other code path.

Please group same types together.
