So the 'snp_msg_seqno()' call in 'enc_payload' will not increment the
counter, its only incremented on 'snp_gen_msg_seqno()'? If thats
correct, that addresses my first concern.

That seems a little dangerous as any module new code or out-of-tree
module could use this function thus revealing this race condition
right? Could we at least have a comment on these functions
(snp_msg_seqno and snp_gen_msg_seqno) noting this?
