/* For the spin try lock, we have the following possibilities:
1) If we assume that trylock will most likely succeed in practice:
* We just do an exchange.
2) If we want to bias towards cases where trylock succeeds, but don't
rule out contention:
* If exchange is not implemented by a CAS loop, and exchange is faster
than CAS, do an exchange.
* If exchange is implemented by a CAS loop, use a weak CAS and not an
exchange so we bail out after the first failed attempt to change the state.
3) If we expect contention to be likely:
* If CAS always brings the cache line into an exclusive state even if the
spinlock is already acquired, then load the value first with
atomic_load_relaxed and test if lock is not acquired. Then do 2).
We assume that 2) is the common case, and that this won't be slower than
1) in the common case.
We use acquire MO to synchronize-with the release MO store in
pthread_spin_unlock, and thus ensure that prior critical sections
happen-before this critical section. */

C++11 and C11 make it clear that trylock operations can fail spuriously,
POSIX does not explicitly specify this; it only specifies that failing
synchronization operations do not need to have synchronization effects
themselves, but a spurious failure is something that could contradict a
happens-before established earlier (e.g., that we need to observe that
the lock is acquired). Therefore, we emulate a strong CAS by simply
checking with a relaxed MO load that the lock is really acquired before
returning EBUSY; the additional overhead this may cause is on the slow
path. */
