Peter Zijlstra (Intel) c1fb159db9 locking/qspinlock: Add pending bit
Because the qspinlock needs to touch a second cacheline (the per-cpu
mcs_nodes[]); add a pending bit and allow a single in-word spinner
before we punt to the second cacheline.

It is possible so observe the pending bit without the locked bit when
the last owner has just released but the pending owner has not yet
taken ownership.

In this case we would normally queue -- because the pending bit is
already taken. However, in this case the pending bit is guaranteed
to be released 'soon', therefore wait for it and avoid queueing.

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