41  * The basic principle of a queue-based spinlock can best be understood
42  * by studying a classic queue-based spinlock implementation called the
43  * MCS lock. The paper below provides a good description for this kind
44  * of lock.
45  *
46  * http://www.cise.ufl.edu/tr/DOC/REP-1992-71.pdf
47  *
48  * This queued spinlock implementation is based on the MCS lock, however to make
49  * it fit the 4 bytes we assume spinlock_t to be, and preserve its existing
50  * API, we must modify it somehow.
51  *
52  * In particular; where the traditional MCS lock consists of a tail pointer
53  * (8 bytes) and needs the next pointer (another 8 bytes) of its own node to
54  * unlock the next pending (next->locked), we compress both these: {tail,
55  * next->locked} into a single u32 value.
56  *
57  * Since a spinlock disables recursion of its own context and there is a limit
58  * to the contexts that can nest; namely: task, softirq, hardirq, nmi. As there
59  * are at most 4 nesting levels, it can be encoded by a 2-bit number. Now
60  * we can encode the tail by combining the 2-bit nesting level with the cpu
61  * number. With one byte for the lock value and 3 bytes for the tail, only a
62  * 32-bit word is now needed. Even though we only need 1 bit for the lock,
63  * we extend it to a full byte to achieve better performance for architectures
64  * that support atomic byte write.
65  *
66  * We also change the first spinner to spin on the lock bit instead of its
67  * node; whereby avoiding the need to carry a node from lock to unlock, and
68  * preserving existing lock API. This also makes the unlock code simpler and
69  * faster.
70  *
71  * N.B. The current implementation only supports architectures that allow
72  *      atomic operations on smaller 8-bit and 16-bit data types.

82  * pvqspinlock, however, we need more space for extra data. To accommodate
83  * that, we insert two more long words to pad it up to 32 bytes. IOW, only
84  * two of them can fit in a cacheline in this case. That is OK as it is rare
85  * to have more than 2 levels of slowpath nesting in actual use. We don't
