locking/qspinlock: Add pending bit
Because the qspinlock needs to touch a second cacheline (the per-cpu
mcs_nodes[]); add a pending bit and allow a single in-word spinner
before we punt to the second cacheline.
It is possible so observe the pending bit without the locked bit when
the last owner has just released but the pending owner has not yet
taken ownership.
In this case we would normally queue -- because the pending bit is
already taken. However, in this case the pending bit is guaranteed
to be released 'soon', therefore wait for it and avoid queueing.
