When a prospective writer takes the qrwlock locking slowpath due to the lock being held, it attempts to cmpxchg the wmode field from 0 to _QW_WAITING so that concurrent lockers also take the slowpath and queue on the spinlock accordingly, allowing the lockers to drain. Unfortunately, this isn't fair, because a fastpath writer that comes in after the lock is made available but before the _QW_WAITING flag is set can effectively jump the queue. If there is a steady stream of prospective writers, then the waiter will be held off indefinitely. This patch restores fairness by separating _QW_WAITING and _QW_LOCKED into two distinct fields: _QW_LOCKED continues to occupy the bottom byte of the lockword so that it can be cleared unconditionally when unlocking, but _QW_WAITING now occupies what used to be the bottom bit of the reader count. This then forces the slow-path for concurrent lockers.
