So when I see people doing new locking mechanisms, I invariably go "Oh no!".
But this series seems reasonable to me. I see that PeterZ had a couple
of minor comments (well, the arm64 one is more fundamental), which
hopefully means that it seems reasonable to him too. Peter?
That said, it would be lovely if Waiman and Will would also take a
look. Perhaps Will in particular, considering Peter's point about
smp_cond_load_acquire() on arm64. And it looks like Will wasn't cc'd
on the series. Added.
Will? See

for the series.
