29 * X = #active_readers + #readers attempting to lock
32 * 0x00000000 rwsem is unlocked, and no one is waiting for the lock or
33 * attempting to read lock or write lock.
35 * 0xffff000X (1) X readers active or attempting lock, with waiters for lock
36 * X = #active readers + # readers attempting lock
37 * (X*ACTIVE_BIAS + WAITING_BIAS)
38 * (2) 1 writer attempting lock, no waiters for lock
39 * X-1 = #active readers + #readers attempting lock
40 * ((X-1)*ACTIVE_BIAS + ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS)
41 * (3) 1 writer active, no waiters for lock
42 * X-1 = #active readers + #readers attempting lock
43 * ((X-1)*ACTIVE_BIAS + ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS)
45 * 0xffff0001 (1) 1 reader active or attempting lock, waiters for lock
46 * (WAITING_BIAS + ACTIVE_BIAS)
47 * (2) 1 writer active or attempting lock, no waiters for lock
50 * 0xffff0000 (1) There are writers or readers queued but none active
51 * or in the process of attempting lock.
53 * Note: writer can attempt to steal lock for this count by adding
54 * ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS in cmpxchg and checking the old count
56 * 0xfffe0001 (1) 1 writer active, or attempting lock. Waiters on queue.
57 * (ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS + WAITING_BIAS)
