   5 * This file contains the main data structure and API definitions of MCS lock.
   6 *
   7 * The MCS lock (proposed by Mellor-Crummey and Scott) is a simple spin-lock
   8 * with the desirable properties of being fair, and with each cpu trying
   9 * to acquire the lock spinning on a local variable.
  10 * It avoids expensive cache bouncings that common test-and-set spin-lock
  11 * implementations incur.
