Davidlohr Bueso c78416d122 locking/rwbase: Optimize rwbase_read_trylock
Instead of a full barrier around the Rmw insn, micro-optimize
for weakly ordered archs such that we only provide the required
ACQUIRE semantics when taking the read lock.

* RT-specific reader/writer semaphores and reader/writer locks
*
* down_write/write_lock()
* 1) Lock rtmutex
* 2) Remove the reader BIAS to force readers into the slow path
* 3) Wait until all readers have left the critical section
* 4) Mark it write locked
*
* up_write/write_unlock()
* 1) Remove the write locked marker
* 2) Set the reader BIAS, so readers can use the fast path again
* 3) Unlock rtmutex, to release blocked readers
*
* down_read/read_lock()
* 1) Try fast path acquisition (reader BIAS is set)
* 2) Take tmutex::wait_lock, which protects the writelocked flag
* 3) If !writelocked, acquire it for read
* 4) If writelocked, block on tmutex
* 5) unlock rtmutex, goto 1)
*
* up_read/read_unlock()
* 1) Try fast path release (reader count != 1)
* 2) Wake the writer waiting in down_write()/write_lock() #3
*
* down_read/read_lock()#3 has the consequence, that rw semaphores and rw
* locks on RT are not writer fair, but writers, which should be avoided in
* RT tasks (think mmap_sem), are subject to the rtmutex priority/DL
* inheritance mechanism.
*
* It's possible to make the rw primitives writer fair by keeping a list of
* active readers. A blocked writer would force all newly incoming readers
* to block on the rtmutex, but the rtmutex would have to be proxy locked
* for one reader after the other. We can't use multi-reader inheritance
* because there is no way to support that with SCHED_DEADLINE.
* Implementing the one by one reader boosting/handover mechanism is a
* major surgery for a very dubious value.
*
* The risk of writer starvation is there, but the pathological use cases
* which trigger it are not necessarily the typical RT workloads.
*
* Fast-path orderings:
* The lock/unlock of readers can run in fast paths: lock and unlock are only
* atomic ops, and there is no inner lock to provide ACQUIRE and RELEASE
* semantics of rwbase_rt. Atomic ops should thus provide _acquire()
* and _release() (or stronger).
*
* Common code shared between RT rw_semaphore and rwlock
