No, this causes new warning from assigning pointer (ptr) to integer node->parent.

Why not just change rcupdate.h to do the right thing.

Subject: [PATCH] eliminate warnings when rcu_assign_pointer is used with unsigned long

It is reasonable to use RCU with non-pointer values, and describe
the optimization.
