/* This implementation is similar to the one used in the Linux kernel.
But the kernel is byte instructions for the memory access. This is
faster but unusable here. The problem is that only 128
threads/processes could use the spinlock at the same time. If (by
a design error in the program) a thread/process would hold the
spinlock for a time long enough to accumulate 128 waiting
processes, the next one will find a positive value in the spinlock
and assume it is unlocked. We cannot accept that. */
