Why did you move to your own hand-rolled thing here? From the old thread
it just looked like Andrew wanted some proper explanation. And the
sychronize_shrinkers is imo much clearer than some hand-rolled srcu thing.

Also on the spinlock covnersion, do you have some benchmarks/profile
flamegraphs/numbers that show it matters? Would be realy good to record
that kind of stuff in the commit message instead of just having the
implication that this optimizes stuff.
