+/*
+ * queued_spin_lock_slowpath() can (load-)ACQUIRE the lock before
+ * issuing an _unordered_ store to set _Q_LOCKED_VAL.
+ *
+ * This means that the store can be delayed, but no later than the
+ * store-release from the unlock. This means that simply observing
+ * _Q_LOCKED_VAL is not sufficient to determine if the lock is acquired.
+ *
+ * There are two paths that can issue the unordered store:
+ *
+ * (1) clear_pending_set_locked(): *,1,0 -> *,0,1
+ *
+ * (2) set_locked(): t,0,0 -> t,0,1 ; t != 0
+ * atomic_cmpxchg_relaxed(): t,0,0 -> 0,0,1
+ *
+ * However, in both cases we have other !0 state we've set before to queue
+ * ourseves:
+ *
+ * For (1) we have the atomic_cmpxchg_acquire() that set _Q_PENDING_VAL, our
+ * load is constrained by that ACQUIRE to not pass before that, and thus must
+ * observe the store.
+ *
+ * For (2) we have a more intersting scenario. We enqueue ourselves using
+ * xchg_tail(), which ends up being a RELEASE. This in itself is not
+ * sufficient, however that is followed by an smp_cond_acquire() on the same
+ * word, giving a RELEASE->ACQUIRE ordering. This again constrains our load and
+ * guarantees we must observe that store.
+ *
+ * Therefore both cases have other !0 state that is observable before the
+ * unordered locked byte store comes through. This means we can use that to
+ * wait for the lock store, and then wait for an unlock.
